Kelly's wip install
So I just got my battery cables from Kelleys wip. And I have them sorted out mostly. Has anyone installed these on there renix ? I know where the mains black and red go and the extra one from the alt to the battery and the firewall. But where does the one for the batter neg to fender well go and where does the fuse kit go. Any help would be awesome or pictures. I'm mostly lost with the fender ground and where to put he big *** fuse kit in the system

Fuse goes in battery to alternator wire.

I don't understand what you'd need to SEE. His kit simply replaces wires that are already there; it's not like you're installing anything new and need to see how it is done. The new negative batt cable replaces the old. The new positive batt cable replaces the old. The new block-to-firewall cable replaces the old braided one. They all go in the same way the old ones came out.

There is a bit more to it than that.

I have 5-90/Kelley's cables and have installed them in two XJ's, so I honestly don't know where they are anything more than just a matter of taking the old out and putting the new in. The fuse? I guess dealing with the old starter terminal, too? The fuse should be simple to understand at least in terms of which wire it goes in-line with (I guess I can understand wondering where/how to mount/anchor the fuse holder, though), and cutting through the plastic between the two wires with a hack saw is how I dealt with the starter terminal situation, but some people just cut the terminal off and crimp a new one on assuming there's enough extra wire to make that happen.

I emailed him. I had r sorted out but I just moved and I forgot how to lay it out. He said there were inscriptions on his web page but they are not working. I have two cables left right now that I don't know where they go. I'm working off his parts list on his page. I have a red cable that's about 34" and one that's 20". I'm missing the one that should be 24". I have the black on for the fire wall. And the other figured out.
