how to connect two 8g wire together
I need to extend a 8g wire from a box and I cant replace the whole thing. Is there anyway I can buy something to connect these two grounding wires together other than a fuse connector? Its a grounding wire.

Could you possibly be a little more specific? Is it a grounding wire for an amplifier? If so you can just connect it to any ground in the car. Or make your own grounding point to connect the two together.

Its a APEXI super grounding kit and conditioner. I have the box sitting too far away from the battery to have the wire reach it. The power wire reaches it, but the ground wire that needs to connect to the battery isn't long enough. I tried opening it to attach a new longer wire to it, but I cannot do that becuase its loomed together in side. For now I have grounding to the chassy.

I would just solder them together with a soldering iron and some solder.then heat shink it over or black tape it,but why you wanna use this that does nothing to the car?Looks maybe?

I agree but i would suggest you use a mini propane/butane torch it will make it much easier to get enough heat to do the job.

Ok, I didn't know if for this particular system you HAD to have it attached to the battery. I have it grounded right now, but if thats also okay to do, I will leave it as is. Thanks.
