Best Battery Terminals after moving the battery?

Hey guys I know a lot of you have moved your batteries to the bin behind the passenger set and I am working on doing that myself, I'm working on finding all the parts I need and one thing I'm having trouble picking is the battery terminals for the wires. There are a ton to choose from and I'm having a hard time choosing. What do you guys recommend?

There's not a great deal of engineering behind battery terminals. Any terminal good enough for a sound system will be sufficient. It would be nice to get the one with extra ports for adding additional wires.

I bought an Odyssey 1100 battery that has the skinny posts and 10mm nut secure... Ended up getting the 3/8" port 2 awg terminals with solder pellets.

They also sell the same setup for the large post batterys

I have had really good luck with these. Very tight bolt on connections with room to fit a good amount of wiring if needed.

I like these. The wing nut makes it easy to quickly disconnect the battery.

+1 just make sure you terminate your large gauge wires properly.
