That was what I was considering doing also. I have the CAI which leaves that stud available. I wasn't sure if that stud went to ground or not but it must. Thanks.

The particular ring terminals that I have are quick disconnect too.

Still plenty accessible even with a cover on, and with the quick disconnect it makes periodically charging the battery a snap.

I was also considering running the ringed ones from the battery out of the "spare tire cover". I use these on our C4 Vette.

Is your car parked? I run it through the little black grommet in this pic along the right side. This way you can keep the trunk closed with a cover on

Good idea, yes it is parked for the winter.

Chalk one up for Chrysler - the Acc Plug in my Challenger can be made always hot by moving a fuse. I'm surprised that GM does not offer this convenience.
