LOL, turn it around? Then the negative wire will be too short.

Also as a side not you may wanna make that amp wire a bit shorter to the fuse otherwise you risk it shorting and burning your car to the ground... I always like all my fuses to have a very short piece of wire with zero chance of rubbing....

Yes

Don't forget to install the rubber bumpers, they capture the battery nicely.

*Also, is there still interest in another battery model ?
I have had some e-mails about the Odyssey PC680, is there still interest in this type ?

LMK

Thanks to everybody on Evom for your support to this point !!!

FUNNY - no modification? Nice try, but you pulled it off the bracket for grounding the negative kid. See where I circled it.

You can do what this boy did or buy a longer negative wire.
