i was digging through old pictures of my car and found this one:

this is something i did about a year ago when i first got my cold air intake and my positive battery cable wasnt quite long enough....

LOL that is pretty extreme for rigging things up. I guess the worst thing i have ever rigged up was when i broke a thermostat housing bolt off i used a C-Clamp to seal it back up and to be honest it is still on that car to this day(my spare accord). I guess sometime you gotta do what you gotta do but i would never do what you did with the battery maybe for a quick fix to get me home but not long term like that.

heh yes i did have a fuse box fire, i should have used a thick piece of metal like that in my fuse box!! (no problem then!!), yeah i really had to drive my car so i put it like that, as soon as i got the chance i got a new cable though :)
