12v Wiring???
doing a battery relocation and would like someone to check to see if i missed anything before I crank it over.
ran one heavy gauge wire (+) from solinoid back through the firewall, down the door rail to a cut off switch mounted on the back side of the oem arm rest. I then ran it to the battery located where the passengers side back seat used to be. the battery is grounded (-) in a seatbelt mount.
Solinid Side
I have (+) and altinator wires to the positive poll on the solinoid.
am I missing anything? I am afraid that I don't have things propery grounded. If I do need another ground where would I connect it?
any ideas would be greatly appreciated

I run 1/0 wire from the solinode to the cut off swtich then 10/ wire for the switch to the barrery and ground it to the fram . and run the wire form the alt the the solinode as normal but a thicker guage so I get better flow as it works harder to get it to the battery
you cut off switch has to be where track offical can get to it in a hurry so doing it on a armrest is a waist of time I got my car with it in the ps tail ight but gona relocated it towhere teh licence plate is

A cut off by the lic. plate is the best place. Thats where i always see them. If you want one inside, put it up on the dash or in the console.
Id put the battery farther back like behind the passengers taillight. But wherever you put it, make sure you take any paint to the bare metal for grounds, dont rely on just a bolt thru the floor connection. Make it solid.
