Drives: 1996 Talon AWD. Built, but no longer drives: 1997 mitsubishi eclipse RS; 1990 Talon AWD; 1995 Talon AWD, 1997 Talon AWD. Seems like a pattern
when i relocate mine I cut the positive terminal end off. then solder all the wires to the wire i'm running to the trunk. black tape everything and then cover it with wire loom to protect it further

If you wanted to be really fancy you could mount a relay box under the hood. It would make connecting thing's to your battery a lot easier, just a thought tho.........

Your best bet to connect everything under the hood cleanly is use a distribution block like is often used in car audio. Or you can install ring terminals onto everything necessary and use a bolt (with nut) to connect them all together. Just make sure whatever you do that all the positive wires are very well sheilded from metal and water.

yeah, make sure that the positive wire will not hit any part of the body of the car, could cause a big fire. i had a fire on my R/T before, melted all the wires,connectors, rewire the whole thing was a pain

there are kits u can buy also...summit,taylor,moroso, they have been doing it for years ..so im sure theres a kit u can find u like..
comes with the cables and hold downs and a battery tray also if u want

the positive cable u can just ring cable too the fuse block where the old one would go or u can make your own...
the negative u can just bolt to the trunk at a good ground point.....
also make sure u vent it well also....
