[QUOTE="SS109, post: 1364824, member: 108964"] I agree. The 16ga is definately the way to go (IMO) for the very reasons mentioned above. I would run some heatshrink around them just to help protect them from corrosion. Route them in a location that doesn't lay them against the engine and all will be good. EDIT: Just wanted to add to not heat the area immediately around the diode itself, just the ends. No special "T" connectors needed. Just splice the wires together anywhere in that particular section of the circuit by soldering or using connectors. (they can be joined at the connector like the ones you have. Two wires in one connector = "Y" splice) Actually, it can ground anywhere. I just used the tail light circuit for simplicity in doing the diagram. You can use the the 12ga but it would be a lot easier to route the wiring with 16ga. BTW, the connectors you have in the pic are meant for 14-16ga wiring so they would not be ideal for 12ga wiring. Just for reference... Yellow connectors = 10 or 12ga wiring Blue = 14 to 16ga wiring Red - 18 to 22ga wiring. [/QUOTE]
