[QUOTE="HardofWhoring, post: 8864782, member: 674149"] Nothing wrong with aluminum. Your posts are most likely lead, unless you've got something better than the standard battery, (if they are, upgrade those too). I'm not a fan of that design. I would rather have lugs on the end of my cables. It looks like you could do em under the screws, but you would have to leave the middle screw out to make room. It might just be the picture, I just don't think you're getting 1/0 next to each other on the next screw, and definitely not on 2/0. You will have 2 or 3 on the vehicle, and 2 or 3 on the amp. Ground cables might be different. You should have at least two, and you don't usually do those one at a time, it's all or none, so not using lugs on those wouldn't be a bid deal. If you do buy that, and plan on inserting bare wire, you're going to want to use ferrels on the end, [MEDIA=amazon]B097ZNCKMZ[/MEDIA] If you don't use these, it will start losing strands every time you install and take it out. These will keep the shape, and won't damage the strands. Personally, I'd look for something better though so I could just use lugs. (Lugs wont' ever fray). Searched for a minute, here are my preferred styles: (Not sure how much room you have on top of where these will mount, but getting rid of those holes gives about another 1/4 - 1/2" of clearance if that matters).
