They are both 5mm x 20mm 1A 125v axial glass fuses.

You can use a higher voltage rating but not lower.  125v ones seem hard to find whiile the 250v is more common.  Just dont get slow blow fuses.

Don't order from China, they are on holiday for 2 weeks.  typical Chinese New Year holiday where even the 24-hours mart are closed.

You can get fuses from local auto shop if you can either solder on wires or replace the wire with fuse holder for easier replacing.  The metal plate over the fuse is going to be an issue when you mod the system for fuse holder.
