I just had to do it this weekend. Still no idea why the battery died on a regularly driven car. Everything seems normal after I recharged the battery. One caveat to what's described in the video - the part that he uses for the ground in the vid was fully painted on my car with no bare metal, so clamping to it would not have worked. I clamped to the loop that the door latch latches on. Another thing to keep in mind is that the trunk open button in the car still did not work and only the remote control could open the trunk, but that's in the manual.

Hi guys,
Angravity is coming out with a cable extension that will attach to the current cable that sits in the wheel-well, it will be sitting close to the windshield and you would not need to jump the fuse box.
