Ernesto Posted September 19, 2006 Report Share Posted September 19, 2006 So yeah im doing an installation for my friend and it appears that the wiring kit came with less wire than what we expected :V I ran the 0 gauge under neath the car and we ran out right under the driver seat (started from back to front). We need about 6 more ft of wire. My question is when I get the other 0 gauge we need, what do I do? Do I just get a fuse holder with 0 gauge in and 0 gauge out and connect them at both ends and continue running it to the battery? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AP Zoutes Posted September 19, 2006 Report Share Posted September 19, 2006 since it's under the car it could get snagged at ripped off, especillay with teh size of most 0/1 gauge fuse holders. Do you have room under there to get the fuse holder out of the way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ernesto Posted September 19, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 19, 2006 dont know for sure but another fuse holder wouldnt hurt would it? I wouldn't think it would as long as I match the same size fuse as I got by the battery up front.My concern is it getting wet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you have room under there to get the fuse holder out of the way Yeah I know I can get it to stay there with no problem. I'm just not sure if it's ok for fuse holders to get wet???? Never had mine get wet. How bout you guys? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meade916 Posted September 19, 2006 Report Share Posted September 19, 2006 here is what i would do....well one of the ways you can get out of this sticky situation. You can put a ring terminal on each end (see my pics of the gold ring terminals....those ones).....run a nut and bolt thru each one and bolt them together....tape the shit out of them so they dont corrode (they still will but not as fast) and then your on your way.
