upgrading battery terminals

[vncruzr]

Hi guys and gals, was looking at my factory battery terminals and they look a bit flimsy compared with some of the solid brass ones i've seen. Was wondering if there is any benefit to upgrading them and if so which ones?

Due to the reduced leakage from the flux capacitor should see an extra 15kW at the rear wheels.

They're not brass, they are gold plated steel
They look neater, don't corrode as fast, make it easier to hook up another 2GA or 4GA cabe run for an amp in the boot.

I fitted this earth one today....Looks a bit better than the stock shitty ones.
It's actually gold plated.

There are plenty on ebay.....battery terminals | eBay

Unless the terminals are thin due to corrosion, or don't do up tight enough, get new ones.
If you want them to look better, get the snazzy ones.
There are even positive ones available, that have a digital voltage read out built in to them.

Agree.....No need for that.
I think he was referring to your post where you said; "they're not brass".

I think he meant the solid brass ones you see in the auto shops.
And you were referring to the ones like I have.

He may have something crappy like this.....
