which one would you recommend so it fits nice?
did you wrap your alternator cable too? seems like the black plastic wire loom is slowly melting
do you think this would be a better solution?

I made my own out of foil backed high temp canvis and some nylon pile industrial insulation. Mads one for the starter and AC Compressor.

Good stuff here. I wouldn't mind having a schematic of the c6 Voltage regulator although you can use the corrolation from the C5.
