I have a car amp that is 100W capacity and has two 25A fuses.
I accidently cut the wire that goes from this amp to the battery in the engine room so I need to reconnect.
I am thinking about buying this amp intallation kit which has 60A AGU fuse.

Can I use 60A AGU fuse with this amp?

Yes, the 25A fuses will blow B4 the 60A.

What does 25A fuses blowing up before 60A fuses mean?

60A is huge for a 100W amp. My JL 500W amp uses a 60A (or is it 50A?) so there would be damage to your amp before that fuse would blow.
