Battery relocation, and master cuttoff switch
 
I just changed my setup and have to relocate my battery to the trunk, I need some ideas on setting up an external kill switch, something decent looking and well functional. please post pics and ideas of civics and integras cutoff switches, and battery relocation in the trunk.

I am looking at one but seems like I can only go through my tail light with it. I dont wanna do that.
it seems that I can put a moroso one next to my keyhole behind the keyhole cover. or just replace the keyhole all together. maybe I should get the pull cable type so I can mount it under the bumper and just use a sign to show where its at.

that would also be possible. when i put mine in my hatch, im putting the pull style right where the keyhole is since i dont have a key for it anyways. lol

I think the 1st one is better because it has the alternator kill.

i used 2 guage car stereo amplifier wiring.. i bought a plastic battery box from walmart and a big group 12 battery.. drilled 2 holes thru the battery box and chassis.. then ran ground wire to the spot where the spare tire went.. i need to get a cutoff switch to run car at track but not sure where to mount it aswell. and make sure u bolt the battery down good.. i didnt do it the first time in my other ef and the battery tipped over and the acid ate away all the paint.

my main concern right now is finding a good switch mounting spot.
I've searched everywhere.

ive seen that most people put it in the middle tail light thing.. you could drill 2 holes thru the chassis by the spare tire to route the wires thru.. then make a bracket underneath ur bumper to hold the switch so it wont be visible unless u look under the car.. then just put a piece of tape above it and say battery with a sign going down..
