Battery cable re-routing question

[MuffinMan]

I am *finally* getting around to finishing the installation /re-relocation of the lightweight Odyssey battery to the smuggler's box. I have most of it figured out except for the main, big mother cable. I think this is the cable that goes back to the starter, but I'm not sure where it goes once it's in the body.

Where, exactly, does this cable go once it disappears into the body near the gas tank? What the easiest way is to route it to the smugglers box area?




This is where it's going:

I'm about to do the same thing, with the parts he suggests.

If you take the driver's-side floorboard out, you'll see it coming through the front firewall heading into the center tunnel. When I did exactly what you're doing, about a month ago, I removed the battery clamp from the cable, pulled it into the cockpit sent it into the smuggler's box from the passenger side of the firewall--can't remember if I needed to remove that floorboard or not, but I think I did--and reattached a new battery-post clamp. There seemed to be a convenient hole through which to send it--don't know what its original purpose was--with a proper-size grommet placed around the cable. Piece 'o cake.

Thanks a million to both of you! With that bit of help, it was quite simple to find the correct lead in the driver's side footwell. I just didn't want to go pulling on random wires, unplugging who knows what, until I found the right one.

Now one last trip to the parts store to buy some grommets and wire ends, and I'll be all set (finally).
