have it so the quick disconnect is just in front of the seat

its a good idea, for safety also. if somthing happens you can disconect it before you get a fire, or crash trying to get off the road.

if you do it, make sure you run the other end of the ground to the frame of the car, if you do it to a seat bolt, and your rack is welded to the frame, you will be grounding your setup thru all the grounds in the car. i had mine to the seatbolt and my lights would bright/dim when i hit switches, also it would arc up in the rear pillar. scared the shit outta me at night!

also use a thicker cable like a 2/0.

Depends on what you got in the trunk, I would not use 2/0 gauge cable to run a jumper for my ground up front, that cable is veeeerrrrryyyyyy unflexible, and you are gonna have a good time trying to run it under your carpet. So it does depend on the system. 4-6 batteries, 1-2 guage, 8 batteries 1/0-2/0, anything more, better get some thick wire.

Well let me ask you this, can I just use the chassis as my grounding point? cause I have a unibody and I'm very worried about a good ground

 

[BIG DIRTY]

Yeah, or a Seat post that goes to the underside. What I did was were my Seat is, I ran a Jumper from the seat post to the Frame.

 

[Texas Switch HitterS]

what kind of car do u have?

 

[NastyRedz]

run another wire back to the rack then just to be sure , I did. I didnt have any problems either. And i only ran 1/0 Welding Lead
