I bought a Rexing V1 4K dash with the hard wire kit. I eventually got all the wiring hidden, found which fuse slots to use, but can't find a way to convert the wiring's standard fuse size to the micro size in the fuse box. Even Ford parts didn't have anything I can use. Any suggestions or ideas? Why does this part have 2 fuse ends (one in, 1 out)?

Thanks

The hardwire kit uses a connection to constant hot, and one to AUX. The Aux line powers the cam, and then the hot wire is used to control the motion/vibration sensor, which will fire up the cam if any motion is detected.

That's how I understand it. I didn't use the hardwire kit.

You can buy micro fuse connectors and just replace them on your wire kit.

You can get pigtails with the micro size fuse on Amazon.

The two fuse positions are for the original circuit and one for the pigtail. That way you can use a 10 amp position in the fuse box and put a 2 amp fuse on the item you are trying to power.

These work great for adding a Dash cam. That is what I used. It has 2 slots, one for the original fuse and one for the Dash cam fuse. The prongs go where the original fuse was.

What fuse slot do you plan to use?
I used a spare in the passenger compartment fuse box. Can't remember exactly which one.
Whichever one you choose, make sure it is only HOT with the ignition ON.
