This is what I did.  I used #2 THHW wire enclosed in 1/2" and then 3/4"
convoluted wire loom for triple insulation.  Ran it along the fuel lines and
up into the trunk through the drain gromet in the right rear fender.  This
is where the battery is.  Might just as well move battery back there too.
This gives you the shortest distance to the amps anyway.

BE SURE TO US A FUSE ON THE BATTERY OR ANY LARGE POWER RUN.
