I have just finished moving the battery to the front trunk. so far I have the ground cable bolted through a pre drilled hole in the front trunk. I scraped away some paint/coating to get to bare metal, for a good ground. So far it all seems to work fine. I just don't feel like I should leave it like that.
Is there a proper way to prepare the sheet metal/bolt/wire to prevent corrosion from the current or moisture? OR... should I just coat it over with a protectant spray now that it is done? Thanks, Bob. |
