If you have a single engine, 2 battery setup, you'll need 2 more battery cables and stainless hardware to mount it.

Here's a diagram:

Mine is wired just like diagram #1 in BMR's post. Here's a picture of mine. I made the little panel to mount it too out of some aluminum angle and a 1"x6".

You run the red (+) from both batteries to the switch and also positive lead from the motor. Then just a cable to connect the ground from 2nd battery to the 1st.
