Yeah, it's pretty straight forward. Just follow the lines. I'd also do the reds ( positives ) as well since you're already there. I used one of those terminal wire brush thingy's and after both ends shined like a new nickel I sprayed them with Permatex terminal protector. It sprays purple. I used it at all connections. I never tried die-electric grease. That may work as well, I dunno.



The hardest one to get to ( and it really wasn't THAT difficult ) was the ground to the block. Don't forget to clean that one as well.
