Looking for suggestions on where to mount positive and negative distribution blocks on my hatch with a rear mounted battery? Battery is mounted in the passenger side rear corner of the trunk up next to the gas fill neck.

Yea I’m trying to clean it up a little bit, the battery terminals are getting really crowded with all the different ring connectors connected to each one

I ran my cables behind the rear side panels and over the rear shock tower. Under the shock tower access panel I mounted a mega fuse. Look under the shock tower access panel and see if there’s room there for doing what you want.
