Which electrical wire to use??

1970 911t.

Replacing stock batteries with an Oddessy 680 and a Rennline smugglers box relocation kit with a kill switch. Figured out how to pull the heavy positive line into the cabin and reroute directly to the smugglers box. However the original driver's side battery had a few other wires connected to the positive lead, one from the fuse box and two from the fire wall. They were wrapped together and I was able to separate them. The two from the firewall direction can reach the smuggler's box directly but the one from the fuse box cannot. What type of wire should I use to lengthen it?

I would use THHN wire as it is gas/oil resistant. 10 AWG (per timmy2) stranded so you can bend it.
