I'd sell the kit for $25 plus shipping perhaps.

I should start making these kits for people. Some of the grounding kits that we see sold for much more deliver a lot less value.

It's interesting how a lot of vehicle manufacturers are leaning toward the 2.0 liter engine. I'm seeing caddy use the 2 liter turbo as well as Merc...

Separate fuse for alt to battery cable http://photo.qip.ru/users/tolmach/96...#mainImageLink

None of the DIY I checked for Big 3 had a fuse, it worked for me.
My Big 3 it's gauge 0, and on your pictures shows something that looks like gauge 4, not sure if it's better or not.

What do you mean with "unprotected"? that red and transparent plastic over the wires is really thick, and protects the wires very good, I don't see anything wrong.

BTW I received more than 10 PMs asking about the Big 3, I reply to only one the one who PM me first, so if you didn't get a response I apologize.

What TOLMACH is referring to is the live posi wire if you ever get into a wreck that knocks the battery and/or wires loose.

It's an even easier fix than spending the money that he did for the car audio fuse and holder. You can go to any auto parts store and buy a heavier Amperage fusible link. That will allow you to run it inline like TOLAMCH did yet have just as much fusible protection as you need and have a smaller sillouette versus using the car audio fuse solution.

Note, either works.

As for "unprotected"...that's a bit of a stretch. Like D mentioned, the clear sleeving offered from the wire itself is usually sufficient in the Yaris engine bay. Techflex, like what TOLMACH, is using is purely for looks. The techflex offers no true protection other than an easily melted layer of more plastic. I mean really...you use a hot knife to properly terminate the ends...

The good thing everything went well, in theory I could tell that the Yaris was sold in less than 5 hrs, the guy I sold it to was the first one to contact me just a few hours after I posted in Craigslist.

Reminds me when I sold my Motorcycle it was gone fast.

I have a bunch of little things left that I may post for sale, the OZ Ultraligera black wheels for example... more info later I'm just way overwhelm now.

Good night. Zzzzzzzzz

I spoke the the guy who bought my Yaris the other day, he was very happy and did a few modifications already like 6x9 speakers in the rear deck and an alarm for security...

I miss my Yaris, specially with this Subaru and it's 23 MPG, (my brothers car)
