Default installing battery terminal....

I have a battery terminal ...



I have 2 wires currently going into my battery (stock) and 1 for my PPI amp (8 guage) and my 0 Guage power wire for my other amp.

Where do i put the 2 wires that already go into my battery??
(the inside hole on the left side doesn't have anything to tighten with either..it's just a hole.

why do you have two wires going to the back? can you combine the 8ga and the 0ga wires into just the 0ga line (split it back in the trunk or wherever the amps are)

then use the new opening to feed the factory wiring, or use a splitter if you don't have enough openings or the available openings are too large to hold the smaller factory wires.

you don't want to have the factory wires come loose and your engine electrical system shuttin down while drivin...
