Sub and Amp Installation Help!
Okay so I'm picking up a JL Audio 10w3v3 + MRP Alpine M500 amp (Are these good? Getting them on Craigslist together for $100)
I'm looking to order this wiring kit:
Now I want new battery terminals to clean things up, advice on what to get?
Picture below is what I have so far on the battery....I never connected any of this up, and I'm a newb to car audio stuff and how everything connects to each other. Read through the stickies already.

Read through this sticky:
Then read everything here, twice:
Plan your install before you start. Consensus is ANL fuse is what you want. You absolutely need to fuse your amp. wire near the battery.

Okay did some reading around, what should I get for battery terminals?
Uploaded a picture of what I have so far, I'm a complete noob with this stuff....I need to some cleaning up in that area.
And how the heck can battery terminals give you better gas mileage, the sticky mentioned it would along with cleaner sound.

I've got some crazy battery terminals that the po installed on my car. They're super clean looking rather then just bolting a ring terminal to your battery terminal and any store that carries car audio will have them. I'll get you a picture of them as soon as its bright out. And man, the first thing most people do to cars is car audio, and a lot of people get lost and seek advice. There's tons of articles out there, and when it comes down to it, as long as you're running a basic system (i.e. just an amp and sub (or two) and an aftermarket head unit, it's all very basic when you look at it.). Good luck with your install!
