Replacing battery main ground (searched)
Not only is it crusty, but I see discoloration due to what I think is long overdue oxidation.
I'll be going with like a 4 gauge wire but where can I find the end-link terminals for the main wire? I am sure the local autostore carrys them but the terminal that connects to the chasis has this tiny clip on it to help it cling in place on the body. I might just simply get an OEM Honda one.
One other noob question, I am curious if there are serperate wires that are connected to the main ground wire underneath the body somehow, I don't know how but I was just wondering if the only ground point on the battery was that one thick wire that connects to the chasis.
Thanks!

There are no wires underneath the body, and you can use any universal 4 gauge ring terminal... That notch is there just for an added security... No worries.
