Okay, this is a picture of someone else's car but I stole it to ask you what the name of the circled part is. It's the part that is right behind the battery under the hood. The positive wire from the battery connects to it, as well as I think the ground does too. (I think mine got fried when I hooked up a different alternator, well it was smoking. I don't think that's quite good...) Anyway, does anybody have a name for this?

Thanks much.

Attached another picture

About an 8 dollar part, and less than a dollar's worth per minute to install....if it takes you longer than 5 minutes, just slam your head under the hood...lol J/K

I knew my doc gave me large doses of vicodin for a reason!
