Question Circuit Breakers vs Fuses

I'm making the modification to my dash lighting this weekend by adding a fuse to the inline wiring. In an earlier post, it was mentioned that a circuit breaker would be better than a fuse.

Other than money, is there a reason why fuses are used rather than circuit breakers in cars? I know fuses are faster. Is there a safety reason or are circuit breakers too slow? It would be nice just to reset a breaker rather than changing fuses.

Has anyone done a wholesale replacement of their fuse panel with a breaker panel?
