yeah, one line in, one out like, like a fuse. i ordered two stinger cicuit breakers on ebay. 150A for battery and 100A for alt. they were $60 for both when compared to my local car audio shop that wanted $65 for one

Taylor Battery Box
Hey dude- Im using an Aluminum Taylor Battery Box-(its lightweight too if your trying to keep your car on the weightwatchers program:rofl the kit came with both plenty of length of thick Gauge Quality Taylor Red and Black Positve and Negative Battery Cables all hardware and Battery Tie Down to secure it directly to the Chassis- believe me the install will be clean as clean can be! I think its so nicely put together and super-de-duper clean that it could almost pass for a factory installed option! Heres the exact one I got- was 188.14 but remember the kit is complete with EVERYTHING to relocate your battery, even cheaper just get the box if you already have cables and everything else. Got it at horsepowerfreaks.com- fantastic service and it shipped to me in about 4 business days too! Check it out! Hope this helps out bro!

I need some pics. I'm wanting to fix my wiring hackjob. Right now I have my positive cable on my starter...along with the positive battery cable coming from the trunk. I wanna know more about this distribution block and see what I need to do exactly to clean it up.
