Under hood fuse box ?'s

What power or positive wires are connected to it? (connected on the outside of the box) I see the positive battery cable is one. Another thing is, I need to make the bolt they connect to longer. I took it apart and pulled the bolt. Will any bolt work, or does it need to be a certain type of metal? :dontknow:

what kind of wires? copper ones :thumbsup: :laughing4:

As much as I want to say that almost any bolt will work, I know that the person I tell this to will come back with some kind of insulated material or something. Any bolt that conducts will be fine. STainless would be good but be sure to use anti-gall on the screw.

the last pic on this page will show you what I did. I just cut a 6" piece of 4 awg and crimped and soldered the ends on it and went from teh batt to the the block and then used that point as a power point for other things as well.
