Select that info on Genuine Dealz site and look at picture that is developed. See if that is what you want. The inter-connection on series battery is very important. Must keep both batteries happy. That means over kill to some, but I'm conservative. I used the ring lugs on the battery threaded stud. Some on here recommend the 'top post' connectors. I can agree with the reasons. The length of the cables depend on your arrangement. Mine used 18 inch cables, mainly because I had them. I used a piece of garden hose to determine the routing of all my cables.
