Battery Disconnect Locations?
 
Thinking of a place to put my battery disconnect. Its a street car, so outside the car is out of the question lol. Battery is going behind the passenger seat (storage bin), as well as a custom little holder for all my premix bottles.

Thinking I would put it up in the engine bay near the firewall, starter side. Couldn't really think of a place in the car.

Thoughts?

Looks like this:

I have a bag of these and might part with some of them for the right price. They are super high end. As in, 4 batteries in a Kenworth T800 run through one of them.

Centre console? Glove compartment? Or even also in one of the storage bins. Just my $.02 :)

Cig lighter, glove box if your being stealth, drill a hole in a easy to remove dash panel or.. On the left side of your car beside the steering column somewhere.

send me one of those!
I put one in the glove box.You can snake the wire on the passenger side floor to the glove box,then out to the starter and up to the engine bay fuse block.

Glove box eh. Might look into that. I had a thought about putting it right beside the battery in the bin. My fuse block is gettin moved, as is most wiring under the hood.

My fuse block is moved too.It sits where the trailing coils used to be.

A lot of current goes through that switch which is a big risk for electrical fires, just a little something to consider

Oh I know. These switches are off kenworth trucks. They can handle more current than what any rotary can put out.
