I'm having trouble going from a distro block to a metal piece on my car - anyone know of any ground piece that can be screwed on to a metal on your car and connect to a 0 GA wire?

Any ideas? How did you guys ground your amps/distro blocks/batteries if you're using a 0 GA wire?

A 0G ring terminal, maybe? You can get a really nice one with a set screw from most any online retailer.

I've got 1/0 from my battery to the trunk distro, and 4g i/o both amps.

Always good to ground to the frame both at the battery and the alternator but I think you’re looking for a street wires piece.

That's pretty kool for $15.... It gives 3 points of ground over my PG ring term. It also appears 2B more low-profile.....

I use one of these guys:

It fits nice and level with a flat surface and works well if you've got limited space to work with. You can probably find one on fleabay for around $8.
