JWs uprated battery leads ......... silly question.

#1 Post by DavShill » Wed Feb 15, 2017 8:09 pm

I'm in the process of fitting the new leads. Must say what great work JW does. I especially like the additional threaded holes for accessory leads.
Anyway this is a daft question but not being a techy engineering type I'm going to ask the question before I snip and splice....
The two smaller leads coming off the positive battery lead, I presume I do simply snip the originals and splice in the new.

....... I know it's obvious ............. but just checking before I get the snips out.

I fitted mine this weekend. Yes, the two additional wires on the positive cable are for soldering in the fuse harness from the original loom, making the cable identical to the original.

The leads are excellent. Absolutely no hesitation in starting what so ever!
