2003 Kia Sorento Build log (Pair of Team AA 15's in and playing)

Here's the engine block ground, the stock one I couldn't remove by hand because I believe the bolt was machine tightened, but luckily, there's another insert, which required me to get a 12 mm bolt from Lowes

Fuse holder installed using clear mounting tape so I don't ruin the fuse box cover

Wire sleeve from Sky Craft, and a 2/0 open ended tinned lug with a 1/2 hole to fit the 12 mm bolt

I decided to keep the factory wiring to
- Use the car when I needed to( like driving it up the ramp to get to the engine block ground and alternator)
- Wiring was weird, and all put together, so I left it alone, and the fuse box had grounds coming from it
- If I decide to sell the car in the future, I can pull out the big 3, and still have a functioning vehicle
