Does anyone know where I can get this bracket other than brutespeed.com? They want to charge $58 dollar for shipping on that. TIA

You don't want the AUX battery in the engine compartment if you want it for AUDIO
equipment. There is nothing in the engine-bay that would need an Aux battery, and
that would not end up powering more than you need.

Your RADIO and AMP power sources are in the trunk fuse box; F2 & F3.

I had the same deal with my former '07 Charger, so I put a full size AUX battery
in the trunk, and wired the AUDIO system to the Aux battery, so all the audio
and accessories I added ran off the AUX battery.

SO, if you happen to be looking to run your AUDIO from the AUX battery, it needs
to go in the trunk.

Connect the primary battery (+) to an 80 AMP isolating relay, then from relay to the AUX battery (+)

Connect the relay trigger so that the relay is only latched when the key is in the RUN position.
You want the batteries in parallel when the engine is running, and separated when in ACCY or START.
This way, when the car is in ACCY, the AUX battery provides the power source for the AUDIO.

Ground the AUX battery.
Pull the fuses F2 and F3 from the fuse box.
Run jumpered fuses from the AUX B+ to the fuse leg/side for the radio side and amp side, not the source side.

I’m not looking to put an aux battery in the engine compartment. I need to reinstall that battery post in the picture and need that black bracket to do it.

Contact ATI directly or one of their dealers. I doubt you will find it much cheaper though

Yea I don’t mind paying the $38 for it, but $58 on top of that for shipping is ridiculous.

LOL that’s for USPS ground. Doubt that’ll get to me next day.

For that type money I would make my own.

760bowtie · 08-12-2021, 11:27 AM
