Not to sound too smart (hint - dip****5000), but I used a ring terminal and bolted it down to the battery terminal bolt. I believe my kit actually came with it. If yours doesn't, they are not expensive by any means. I ran the power wire through the harness grommet in the firewall and then under the carpet the whole way to the trunk. The easiest way to get it through that grommet is to run a coat hanger or something similar through the grommet first, attach the power wire to it and then just pull it through.

Fixed it for you...
I didn't have beef with you from the get-go, until you started acting like an asshat. If you can manage to refrain from that, then sure. I'll leave the decision up to you. 
Since I'm back in this thread, how is the stereo working guys?

okay, so im shopping for battery terminals, and curious, if i cut all the wires that lead to the battery what ones are the biggest, and sizes, and such, i am about to do the big 3 and need some 1/0 onto my terminals and wondering what ones would be best!
so ill have a 1/0 to my + and 8 gauge to my amp + factory wires and factory negitives + Bigger grounds to chassis and engine, maybe do 1/0 and split it into 2 maybe 4 gauge to the 2 grounds so i dont have 2 1/0 to my negative terminal.
maybe?

You are shopping for new terminals and want to know what size to get? Get one that fits onto the post snugly. Every time I go to the store, there is only one size. If there are different sizes, having an XXL one compared to say the normal one won't make any difference. You are probably just going to want to make sure you get one where you can clamp the wires down so you can fit them under there.
I know what size goes to the battery, but standard outputs seem too small, see images
or something like this:
