Can somebody take me a picture of the stock battery terminals on an S14?

Due to the fuse box being broken on my good car, I'm swapping out the casing with the good one from the parts car. And in the process of taking it out, I notice that the two white wires that are going to the positive battery terminal have grey plugs on them. Asn on my good car, these are not present, instead they are just tapped into the terminal. I'd like to see where/how these are connected from the factory. I'm pretty **** about my cars, so I'm trying to put the car back together the way it should be.

the wires on mine are just bolted down on the positive terminal...both are on the same one.

Mine were the same way. But what I had found out (yay parts car!!), is that there is a little red junction box where the two red wires plug into via plugs. I ganked the plugs and the junction box off of my parts car. Spliced the plugs into the bare ended wires comming out of the fuse box and wa-la, I have factory plugs again. Getting a new OEM terminal for the car tomorrow (the one on there is JUNK anyways), and hooking it up the way it SHOULD be hooked up.

Honestly I don't think it's any different if you were to just use two ring terminals, but hey I get **** about certain things too so I know where you're coming from LOL

I agree. The two wires are just supplying power to the fuse block is all. It seems that this is how all of your power gets to the electrical system in the car. I figure its just a cleaner look, and if it works well from the factory it should hold up to what I'm throwing at it.
