by leaving one stock, that would NOT be the cause of the fuses blowing.
The fuses are probably blowing because the new bulbs pull more juice.
to fix this....install a bigger fuse. BUT MAKE SURE THE *ENTIRE CIRCUIT* CAN HANDLE THE ADDITIONAL CURRENT, if the circuit can't handle the extra power, then you can possibly burn up wires and traces. They'll just heat up and melt.
And traces are very thin. oh ya, traces are those "wires" on a circuit board.
