Fuse Box Help

Hey folks,
I have a 67 cuda that keeps blowing the brake/dome lamp fuse. I checked the amps on the fuse holder itself without a fuse and I am getting 1.88 amps. If a wiggle the blades I will get 25.7 amps briefly! What gives? one side of the fuse holder seems loose, is that causing my trouble you think? I took the screw holding the box out but can't seem to flip the box around to see the other side. Are there replacement fuse boxes available?, and if so are they a pain to install? It looks like one side is hard wired in and the other has a connector that leads to the instrument cluster wiring. Not to mention a whle mess of other wires that I can't tell if they are part of the box or not!

I should mention that this has never happend before and I have had the car on the road two and a half years.

Any advice would be helpful! Got to get the car ready for the Lone Star HotRod Round-up!
