Neat lil accessory to clean up small wires going to battery.

[badmix]

I picked this up at west marine. I didnt like having a bunch of wires looking cluttered going to my battery. I just installed this (Will get pics tomorrow) and it looks really trick.

To me, its the small things that help clean up a truck and appearance, even the wiring is protected now and is cleaner.

Where do you bolt that to??

um, im guessing the battery, or some sort of distribution pole

Ive got a Red Top optima. I use the side post for my starter and I got an adaptor for the top post to add accessories and my winch. It has a wing nut that just holds it all down. Prior to this thingy, I just had some round connecters bolted to the top, it looked horrible and if I wanted to kill everything I had to pull all 4 wires off.

Looks like this, but the one I got is a lil thicker

Thought maybe that's what you had. My brother has those for the system in his car.

I myself only have side post so i'd have to buy another battery which isn't a big deal.

where di you find those?? thanks

seems you'll still have alot of little wires running to the battery, just they'll be hooked up to that fancy thing-a-ma-bob....why not use 1 larger cable from b+ to the thing-a-ma-bob and hide and/or relocate the thing-a-ma-bob and hook the smaller wires to it somewhere tidy and out of sight?

90's chevy trucks have something very similar to that pic on the firewall by the a/c accumulator.

Ah, the boat place had the bottom one. I thought about it. But really like the looks of what I added, still gives cleaner look IMO. But I am limted to 4 spots, that one has 8 which is nice. Lots of choices for sure.

that does look cleaner than the wires just running to the battery.
