    Default Wire tuck question!!! Bucky...I need some help

    I want to relocate my battery to my trunk and my fuse box underneath my dash. What is normally the process in doing this? What do I use to lengthen the fuse box wires to make it long enough to go under the dash? If anyone could send me some pointers I would really appreciate it. Thanks in advance

    They will reach without extending. As stated above.. Just unplug them. Push them through and then re-plug them back up.

    get you about 10-12 feet of 8 gauge. and 15+ feet of 4 gauge. Then get a fuseless distribution block. with 2 in 1 out. I can go into further details if needed

    ^Get some thick gauge wire, Forgot exact which size.. but yea get that for your battery relocation. auto parts store has it!

    you will have to solder them together and run one from trunk to starter then One from battery to ground somewere in your trunk (under carpet)
