If you're planning to run wires under the car, that's a big NO-NO

The + (positive/Red) wire is ran down my car on the side of my passenger side or your drivers side.

We have excatly the same plans as you do. In our case current battery location will be in the future the place where ABS pump ( from Boxster) will be . We are using more or less used and reconditioned "kit" from a UK spec car.

Reno..

If you want large gauge flexible cable, let me know a length, and I can hook you up!

Shoot me an email or give me a call.. I can supliment the kit you already have installed, or replace it all together (replacing would be cleaner IMHO)...

Here's a nice place for cheap wire. They're local to me and a fantastic store. It's like the corner of your garage that you shovel all the crap you'll never use, only organized into several thousand very cramped square feet.
