I think C&S Performance in butler has batt relocate kits 262-781-0469, otherwise Project Two in waukesha sells wire by the foot. 262-650-1464

Any decent audio shoppe will have all the wire and lugs you need to do this in stock.
Cartunes was NOT a decent audio shoppe and is closed. :thumbsup

I used welding cable(call a welding supply place to get some). It has a thicker ruberized insulation and the wire is more flexible than most battery cables. Worked really well for routing it under the car.

We use that at work too for our marine application battery boxes we make for Waukesha Engines. Perfect for battery cable routing. Place in New Berlin on Beloit road west of Moorland supplies all our cable and wire. I think it's called Industrial.

Picked up 15 feet or so of 0 gauge from American. Originally he said it was 6.50 a foot. I ended up getting a few connectors and the cable for $60 out the door.

Here's some pictures.

First, spell it right, it was Kartunes.
Second, they were the best audio shop years ago, but things went downhill.

Jason, you should upgrade the ground wire to the same size.

I also love the fire extinguisher mounted in the trunk. It should be standard equipment on any DSM. :)

If they were good they would still be in business, there is no best.
Kartunes (sic) still owes $780,000 in back taxes, glad I never gave those thieves any money. :thumbsup

I never said the owner was a good guy, back in the day they did amazing work. Had some of the smartest guys working. The owner made way too many bad choices and then didn't care anymore.

And they owe over a million in back taxes.

They must have paid some after they shut down, the state of WI says they owe $787,309.

With the amount of fires I have had I will never drive without one. I should have a second just in case.

Oh yeah here's a quick walk around video
