Should I put a 10 amp fuse in place of 7.5 fuse?


Recently I added some footwell lighting in my 2006 Honda Civic Ex. And I blew the original fuse (7.5) and replaced with another 7.5 amp fuse. I ve read that it s a terrible idea to replace 7.5 with 10 but I also added a new circuit to the original dome light circuit. I ve only added footwell lighting to the passenger and driver side, but plan on adding 2 more to the back of the 2 seats. In this case is it ok to add a 10 amp fuse due to the fact that I m adding about 3-4 feet of wire and 10 LEDs?
