Phoenix Gold Phorum

Does someone already used this? I was about to buy it but i don't understand how you make it hold on the battery. There is a hook from pictures i've seen, but no screw to tighten the terminal to the battery... Does someone know?









See on the last image?

the do not show the skinny side but I am willing to be there is a hex-set screw bach there that pushes aginst the flat part pointing to the back.

That's what i'm thinking, but i just want to be sure before buying 2 and finding out they won't fit...

looks like it even has a knock-out ring inside for larger battery needs.

My only concern with those is that I would think you will have a heck of a time if you ever need to slap some jumper cables on it, I would be afraid they would slide off and ground out the other batter.

Don't ya wish PG still had its wire and accesory division...

I have PG terminals very much like this (the last "high-end" terminals PG made), and yes jumping with them isn't great. The PG terminals do have a mount on the top back side of the terminal though so you can attach a bolt as a post if you really need something solid.

Will be going for them, and will pray they fit :p

Ordering them monday probably, will let you guys know!

They will work for you.

Well i'm changing the side screw terminals for some 09GML, will see if it fits. But thanks for the input! By the way, does PG still make some battery terminal?

Wal Mart here carries the Scosche line of parts. I use they're interface cables for OEM HU breakouts. Good quality and a fraction of Best Buy prices. You might want to look there first.

I just installed some of the PG terminals, and I didn't even thing about the jumping issue... But that could be an issue for sure on the positive one. Luckily I have remote start so I could start it while holding the jumper cable on, but still. Something I didn't even think about!

Let us know what you think of them. I need to order some for my wife's car, and I don't know if I will be able to find any more of the PG stuff like I did, so I will be looking for an alternative.

I have been using scosche for years and also found that you can get some good terminals at wally world by them for $10 each.

I avoid worst lie as much as I do STD.

Yes but its called Stinger LOL

In my pontiac, before I converted the side post I used to just hookd up to the alternator terminal and a part of the frame. seemed to get the job done just as well. Wouldnt want to scratch up those pretty terminals sirs

Thanks a bunch!

I have a Stinger distribution block at home, but it said AAMP of Florida and not of America, i was thinking it was another division tho... I'm i right?
