search egay for VW Battery fuse box etc. There are various designs. TPS will sell them at reasonable prices. Some of the egay prices are actually high.

i'd use at the very least 25mm2 wire if youre relocating battery to the boot. Preferably biggest you can get.

If you dont and use the same size wire as standard, chances are you will have starting and charging problems.

Didn't know if it would be a good safety feature, just in case!? But, when it comes to auto electrical, I know nothing! Lol
