Search the archives.. there's good step by step instructions on the install. To get the optima under the drivers seat requires a little bit of cutting. It fits, but it is really cozzy in there. (Read skinned knuckles, sparks flying, swearing and stuff) But at least you don't loose any space inside the "living area" The mistake I made was forgetting to put the rubber gromets on the battery cable before running under the van from one battery to the other. Anyway good luck... I am not mechanically enchlined in any way, but i didn't enjoy the job much, felt good when it was done though... good luck
