I have one of these switch panels in the back of the truck to control the 12v stuff:

Does anybody know how I change the fuses in these? The red "fuse" covers/buttons don't seem to twist or unscrew and I don't want to pull too hard and snap one off. Can anybody lend some advice? How do I change the fuse?
And so how did I blow the fuse? Well, I might as well share my misfortune/stupidity as it will no doubt make a few of you laugh. I was connecting up a new light to a spare switch when my four year old know everything "what's that and how does it work" son asked "what you doing"? So I explained that I was connecting this wire to that switch via this fuse...... And without thinking pointed at each thing with my screw driver......and......yeah you can probably already see what's coming..... I tapped across the contacts and "bam!".
Fuse did its job, I jumped a bit and the boy said "Daddy, was it supposed to do that?"
So I need to change a fuse.
