I placed the Mark III version in the car for a test fit.

First task was to mark the location for the mounting hole and drill it.

Then I just loosely placed the components on the board to test the layout.



You may have noticed I'm using a quick disconnect for the power and ground. (and for the other connections too. more on that later.)

Here's a link to the disconnects on Amazon.

You crimp the supplied ends onto 4AWG wire and then insert the crimped ends into the connector until they click in place. This would have been A LOT easier with a hydraulic crimper but I don't have one of those so I just had to crab up on it.



These are rated up to 175A which is plenty. The amp is fused as 2 x 30A for a total of 60A.

These also come with plugs for capping off the ends when not in use.

You can't buy happiness, but you can buy car parts which is kind of the same thing.
