There is no MODE setting in /etc/udev/rules.d/45-fuse.rules, so you
would have to add 
  , MODE="0666" 
to the end.

However, as an alternative to doing this, you can add users to the "fuse"
group to give them the access they need to use /dev/fuse. Dont forget
to logout and back in to get the new group.
