Battery lead distribution terminal block

[2002Targa]

Greets,

someone on here has a battery terminal block that looks something similar to my crude sketch here. I think there was 2 large posts for batt and starter and also 2 smaller ones for accessories. Does this look familiar? I just got an E30 battery cable, but I'm not real big on how it terminates it's connection.

Thanks,

TK

I already have all that stuff, as I said earlier, I don't the way it terminates.

If you don't like the way the E30 distribution block terminates, go to a good auto. eletronic installer....the guys that do the mega audio/video after-market automobile installations. They have all sorts of heavy duty electronic distribution blocks made specifically for high amp 12 volt redistribution in autos. That's what I did. If you can't find what you want in Elizabeth City, check out the guys in the Chesapeake/Va. Beach/Norfolk area (you are close, right?) Somebody should have what you want.

Great idea, thanks.

I didn't even think of the stereo guys....

for a cheaper alternative to the stereo guys, you can buy a marine grade 12 vold distribution block, with 6 spade fuse circuits for under 20 bucks at any West Marine, or other boat supply store. Just run a heavy hot lead from your starter to the block. 1 ground to the fender. Use relays for added protection and power strength to aux. devices. The basic block are unswitched circuits. You do not want all the power to the aux. devices to run through your ignition , all the time, when on. That is another reason to relay. Good luck.

I made my own. Lots of work but I had all the materials lying around so:
