Ground wire kit install suggestions

I just bought me a set of grounding wire kit from SWA. Great price $49.99 and it was at my door in three days.
Anyways apart from the great service SWA provides, i was wondering if anyone has installed their kit?
I was expecting some instructions/ information on how to go about this with the box but that didn't happen.
I could use some help here guys.
This could be a good article for How-To's too.

well, from what i know, you attach a distribution block to your - terminal, tap all wires into that, and go on to ground different things like chassis, engine mount, valve cover,trans. feel free to correct me and add anything anyone...

they are overpriced wires, but i plan on doing it myself for about 15 bucks. I was just wondering how hot does the engine bay get? theres wires wiith insulation that withstand up to 60C and 106C. what should I be looking for?

as for functionality, im installing foglights and neons soon and with my crappy luck, something will blow, so just ensuring my grounds.

Check out that link for how these work! Not as much of a waste of money as many think.
