I'm possibly going to be putting my new battery in the car tomorrow, and I have new battery terminals that'll be going on there too. The battery terminal has inputs for 1x0 gauge, 2x4 gauge, and it also has 2 screws on top for further small wires with ring terminals.
My question is, what's the best way to get the stock wires into this terminal? I'll be using the 0 gauge for my audio installation, so that'll be running to the boot, but I've got the two 4 gauge's free. I just had a look and from what I can tell, I've got two 4 gauge stock wires going to the battery now from places that I dont know, and then two other wires which are only small, and I can easily extend them using crimps. How would I extend the thicker wires? Is there a 4 gauge crimp I can get?
Here are a couple of photos to show what stock wires I have. The red wires are one's that I've added so don't worry about them, I've got them covered.
The 4's on the image are pointing to the 4 gauge wires, and the 10A arrows are pointing to wires that are around the same thickness of the red extra wires I've added that are showing in the image, they're able to handle 10 amps.
Here is the battery terminal
Any help is greatly appreciated..
