Default What Type of Fuse??

What type of fuses do our cars have? I need to purchase two fuse taps to hardwire my dash cam to two of the fuses in the fuse box near the drivers feet. Also, what’s the best way to pull these out? I tried briefly to do it by hand but it barely budged. Would pliers be okay?

micro2
micro3
lowpro mini
mini
ato (regular)
maxi

Sorry, I wasn't able to pull them out at first. From the top, they looked similar to the mini, low pro mini, and the micro fuses.

Also didn't realize that there are fuse pull out tools located in one of the fuse boxes in the engine compartment. Pulled one out and was able to confirm that they are the mini.

Thanks for the help!
