Yeah they come tomorrow. :D I'm debating whether to put them on tomorrow or wait until I get some more money and buy some clear headlights, clear taillights, HID's and a 4-Hi mod kit and just knock all my lighting out at once. Not sure yet though.

Shouldn't there be rubber grommets here where the cable passes thru the steel floor??



i caulked it all up after that picture lol and both wires are fused both up front from the battery under the hood and in the back b4 they reach the 2 batts back there so if something "is" to happen they will just blow the fuses :) like i said im way overkill

How do you setup remote batteries like that?? Just connect them to the main battery or run a separate alternator lead?? Any diagrams?? I've seen a bunch like that here and I'm kinda curious.
