pull the batter cable from a 3 series bmw, roll it up and walk out the scrapy or just put in your pocket/tool box when your getting stuff out of the scrapy, it will already have the ends on it, just take the earth from the engine bay and put it in the boot, you might want a plastic box to keep the battery in, and a junction box so all your lives can be hooked up to eatch other in the engine bay

so i just conect a power lead to my original terminal and feed it through to the boot? or seperate each wire that goes to the battery and put them through a junction box and then connect the new lead to the other end of the junction box?

Use a distro block to connect all the + cables, and run a 0gauge cable to the boot for the +. Take the - cable out from the engine bay, make a new earthing point in the boot and connect to - on battery
