I started out "assuming" I new what I was doing here.

1. I wanted the Batt. in the trunk for cleaning up the engine compartment.

2. When the battery is in the trunk still need to save space as much as possible so I mounted it up on the ledge.

3. didn't think I need a "box" since the battery is an optima it doesn't vent. turns out I probably do?

4. Didn't think I need a switch or anything else. turns out I probably do?

This is mostly for the street but want to pass inspection WHEN I do race.

I should have asked questions first. I also run a one - wire alt.

Be gentle here cause I'm electrically challenged. Now I'm told I need to install the solinoid in the trunk as well and have a junction box on the firewall instead? And an external shut-off switch. Is all this necessary? Of course I want it to be safe, so I'll do what is needed. Any Ideas?
