After Market Kit install - NEED HELP!!!
Hello all!
This is my first thread here
I bought an after market kit for my W211 E55. I was looking at the engine bay to plan for the install when I reallized the battery was in the trunk! I just bought my car 2 weeks ago so I don't know much about it.
Does any one know where I can find a source for power within the engine bay?
Any help is appreciated. Thank you in advance

I bought the XenonDepot kit with the philips bulbs & ballasts. Most other kits are just plug and play since they do not utilize the use of relays. Since my kit comes with a relay I need to find a power source for it.
Maybe i'll just eliminate the relays....

The Battery Under The Filter Is For Sbc Brakes Only, I Would Not Reccomend Using It To Power Up Your Lights. If You Open The Hood All The Way,open The Left Fuse Box By The Drivers Side Winshield,pop Up The Sam( Fuse Holder Assy) There Will Be A Large Red Wire That Is The Batt. Lead. Connect To That, But Be Aware That There Are Pre Fuses That Protect That Circuit And If You Happen To Blow One You May Have To Buy A Complete Junction Box That Houses The Pre Fuses.if You Don't Know Much About The Car And The Wiring I Would Get It Hooked Up By A Pro. Shouldn't Take Much More Than An Hour Or So, Just My Thoughts, Good Luck.
