For the right battery cabling etc..., can these be easily obtained walking into a Parts Source or just about any automotive parts shop should have the cabling available?

For some reason I can't picture Canadian Tire having what I need, unless they have it on spools behind the parts counter?

TIA

Any local car audio shop. Support your local small buisness. They'll have what you need.

 

Thanks! Much appreciated!

100.00 at audio shop- 20.00 at princess auto...... hard decision....

 

Anyone do big 3 on a Honda Civic? Just curious, as the positive terminal on my alternator also has some extra plug to it. I don't want to mess something up or fry something.

Nevermind, looks like it just hooks up to the bolt that is covered by rubber. Got to try to get big 3 done this weekend, once I figure out what lengths wire I need.

 

Did my honda, you just add the wire to the stud, dont remove whats there, i used 4 awg frm what i had layin around. im runnin about 800 wrms altogether, these honda alternators and mini batteries suck! lol

 

it's likely just the sensing wiring that makes the alternator work.

 

Thanks, I'm more familiar with older car alternator set ups, looks like I should be good to go! Just got to get the cabling needed to do this now.

if i have leftover wire from install could i use it for big 3 upgrade?
