Battery fuse terminal

Post by VWMartin »

Hi guys

What are you people using if you have multiple wires with fuses running to the main battery?

I've got a charge relay and amp running to the main engine battery as well as some other wires without fuses - just wondered if there is anything you guys are using which is a good solution?

Thanks in advance.

Martin.

Cheers - thats what i was thinking but was unsure where to put it, or if there was anything more suitable that was waterproof and could go in the engine bay...?

Put it in a tupperware-style box if you want extra protection. £ shops do some small ones with clip down lids.

There is a lovely void in front of the battery, below the driver's seat. Mount it there. I have a similar arranging under my passenger's seat for the leisure battery distribution.

As above really. Lots of room under the seats and as Cov Kid says no need to but anything expensive to mount it in. Better not to mount it in the engine as there would be a lot of pointless cable routing.
