Ground wire kits...where to buy

I've been reading about the ground wire kits and saw one from Matt Blehmco. Who else carries these kits. or is it a do it yourself, buy your own wire deal. the Blehmco kit doesn't look good. Not that it should matter, but I just wanted to know what my other options are before I buy.

make your own with 8 Ga. I have basicly 2 of the big 3, I dont have the alt-> pos battery YET

I suggest making your won kit all you need is like 20 ft 8 ga sub wire and like 10 end connectors, and solder is good too.

There's no reason not to do a basic ground kit. It looks good and simply helps the engine by providing an east flow of current. The pos alt -> pos battery is based on the same principal I guess, but remember that you DO need a fuse going from the alt to the batt. vs not needing fuses for a basic grounding kit.

Here's an overview, i'll look for a close up, but all you do add the new groundkit wires to the back of the stock bolt.

My hyperground is like 6 wires, that are all soldered together with 2 connectors, and those are bolted to my 2nd neg. port

here is a close up of where you should conect it.

Tyrexx, your set up looks really nice and clean. I see getting your own wire looks good so you can customize it any way you want.

Personaly I would have distracted the wires from sight, I don't like to see a lot of cables and when I'll go detailing my enginebay I will make an effort to hide every single electrical cable I can find under that hood. Looks a lot cleaner IMHO.
