As the title says. I'm moving my battery to the trunk, however, I would like to know if i should ground more wires to the engine to ensure that my car is getting power If yes...where should I ground more wires?

Jeff-

 

I moved my battery to the rt rear of my hatch in my Crx, i just grounded to the wheel well. I have a voltmeter and everything seems cool for the last 3 years since I did this. some other people might say differently though based on experience

 

When I relocated mine to the back of my hatch I found that if you dont have it grounded to the tranny where it was originally your car isnt going to start. But, I also made a second ground where the rear seat is bolted down.

 

I bought my 91 hatch with the battery relocated to the trunk already, all that person did was extend the negative wire from the engine compartment to the rear, I haven't had any voltage problem, it's usually at 14.3-14.0 while driving, based on my rsm.

Yes, and I blew my starter because of that to. I guess the power has no where to go and it fries the starter with too much power.
