Do you have any particular reason why you cannot update to the current
5.5?  5.3 is so ancient and has many known security bugs.  CentOS 5.4
and later would have kernel support for fuse.

If you must stay with 5.3 for some reason, then install kmod-fuse from
ElRepo ( http://elrepo.org ).

If you still want to use dkms, then you would need to install
kernel-devel (not kernel-headers).

Hope this helps,

Akemi
