I have an '07 Prius an I'm trying to locate the fuse for the power converter (the receptacle for the cigarette lighter) located by the glove compartment. I could not find any mention of it in the fuse box located under the hood. The manual identifies a fuse in a second fuse box under the steering column, but I can't find any fuse box in that area.
Anyone have any ideas where this would be?
TIA

The fuses are marked in the diagram on the inside of this fuse box cover panel.
They're a blade-type mini fuse, so they're not always easy to find replacements. They look like these:
