Small battery

So I just did the small battery setup and works perfect but one thing I did not like is the positive cable it's kinda tight just want to see what you guys did to make a cleaner look and so on.

I stretched the harness while doing a mini-wire tuck. My positive post is up front and I never liked how tight it was. I'll take this sketch to work tomorrow and scan it but here's what I did. I ended up running new wire from the alternator power and the starter that was 12" longer for each. I added the length to the wire between the main loom and the battery connection.

The routing for this harness is exactly the same as factory, just with extra length for the battery connection.
