I just ordered a 10T handheld hydraulic crimper. I have replaced the battery so next is the 200a alternator to which I will run a 0awg cable to from the battery. The problem is, I don't like these battery terminals or the use of allen screws for everything. I will be getting some new terminals with 4 ring terminal connections on each of them. So I will take every wire and cable that touches the battery and make new connections with the crimper and ring terminals. 12v+ side will be copper ring terminals and the 12v- side will be silver colored copper ring terminals, all with heat shrink. Should look good and hold better too.

I somehow blew my triple trumpet air horn in the grill of the Elantra. The relay is corroded and shot and I think it caused the mini compressor to poop the bed. I ordered a single 18" trumpet to replace the current triple horn setup. New trumpet, new compressor, new relay, new wiring. This one is black instead of red so it will disappear behind the grill better.

This is the one.

I ordered the new terminals today. Interesting design. I think the concept is good. Each terminal has three 0awg slots on each side secured with the allen bolts going through the nuts on top... which are for ring terminals. These terminals are pulling double duty!!

I'm just buying shit now lol. I just ordered an RCA Y cable - two female to one male. Knukonceptz Krystal series. The Taramps Smart 3 has 1 RCA input. I don't think these Punch P3's are gonna handle it.
