What kind of conduit would be best to protect it?

metal? Won't that be a rattle just waiting to happen?
That stuff is used, at times, in building type electrical work. Most codes limit it's run length to very short distances as it does not afford the same level of protection as say EMT conduit. A nail can be driven through it, for example. If you bend/kink it hard enough it will break open and the edges are sharp and will cut a wire.terry, the nice thing about the conduit i linked to is that it is flexible, and can handle incident like a traffic accident. i wont use any hard conduit, even plastic.
That's a good idea. I will have to look and see if I can go that route too. Thanks!I enlarged one of the bezel mounting holes in the tail panel enough to fit the aluminum rod through. When at the track, remove the bezel and attach the rod to the power switch, when done for the night, remove the switch, and put the bezel back on. If I did it again, I'd turn the rod diameter down a bit more, so that the hole doesn't have to be oversized too much. It's just barely covered by the bezel.
Also, if you move the battery to the trunk, you should move the relay too. No need to have such a large unfused wire live all the time when you only need a smaller fused wire running between the alternator and battery. With the really out back, the large wire is only live during the few seconds of engine cranking. Safer in my opinion.
