Good bang-for-buck battery terminal posts, 1/0 reducers, etc.

When I get my next car, I'm going to step into the world of 1/0ga. I'm trying to prepare in advance as best I can for the install, so I need your guys' help picking some wiring accessories. I've already decided on either cheap used 1/0ga from this forum, or KNU from eBay. I still have no idea where to get the rest of the stuff. I hear KNU's battery terminal posts are ****, so that's out of the picture. Where should I get accessories like the battery terminal posts, 1/0 reducers (for the new AP or MB Discus amp I'm going to get), and anything else I might need? I do have a 300a fuse in a Kicker distribution block that I think accepts 1/0ga (it barely accepts 4ga, meaning the screw goes down so much to clamp the wire that it falls down its "track").

Thanks for any help!

Stinger SPT521 Car Audio 0 Gauge To 4 Gauge Size Reducer There ya go. I think you can just get a extended pole for your battery and use regular 1/0 gauge terminals. (Like the one you sed for your grounds) You can get a battery terminal for it if you really want to. As for wiring accesories I am not for sure what else you may need. Wire, clamps, fuses, fuse holder, and maybe a grommet if you go through the firewall. Make sure it says AWG on it too. Cheap wiring will HURT in the long run. Melting and fires are things you want to avoid!!!
