Both of my stock location cable are still in the front.
I just bolted the ground on the frame.
The positive one is wired with the cable(+) coming from the back.

Ground battery is bolted near the shock tower.

This may not look right at a show but since I'm not a show freak,it is plenty reliable on the street and on the track.

Just dis connect your batter from the where it is now. Run the possative from the starter back to the battery in the back. Ground the battery that is in the back to something in the back. like that metal peice right in the spare tire well. The power line that runs from your fuse box thing in the engine bay to the start will still stay there, in the engine bay. HTH.

I have my batt in the back also. All you have to do is run the main wire from the battery to the front of the car. Then from that wire use a distribution block,(you can get at any stereo shop), mine is 0 gauge in with four eight gauges out. from that block run one to the fuse box and one to the starter. My turned out pretty clean and I only have one wire going to the back.

What I did was I went to Lowe's and found this wire splice type thing. I don't even remember what section of the store it was in or what it was really meant for. hehehe

but anyways. . it's this little metal tube type thing with a set screw on each end. I ran a 4 gauge wire from the battery i nthe back up to the engine bay. Then I just crammned the wire into one end of the new splice. Then the 2 10 guage (I think) wires that are left over, you cram into the other end of the splice. Then I used some shrink-wrap to seal the connection up. And finally added some conduit to cover it all and make it look clean. Honestly it looks stock.

I'll take some pics tomorrow.

In my CRX I ran 4 gauge from the starter and fuse box to the back. + my ground off the battery was 4g. 10-12ft of each to the back and 2ft of ground. Never had a problem.
