Best Position/Location for Battery - -ER- - 10-03-2016

hi friends;

I will change the location of the battery.
I bought a new cable 50mm like they say it is best for HiFi.
Now the real question is; 
Is this the best place to be in the trunk right or left ?
and this cable too thick ?

can't have a cable thats too thick imoh

as the battery is originally on the passenger side, id run the cable down the same side to the boot in the same side - saves crossing over the car and keeps it simple + if you often ride without a passenger it'll offset your weight for better handling (lol)

but tbh it makes no odds

I just put the battery on my dt in the boot. Mines on the passenger side in the boot.

50mm2 wire will be plenty big enough, i have 25mm2 on mine to start but it wouldn't turn the old diesel over fast enough so i now got 50mm2. Made a huge difference.
