Well, I picked up a set of this
Clicky me! and was wondering the best way to hook them up? Would I hook them to just one battery or the other?

What do they sell for now days?

$123 + tax at a 4wheel parts outlet in San Antonio.

Napa Auto also carries these cables. I bought a set a few years back, around $100. To answer the original posters question, hook up to only one battery.

Which battery should I connect it too?

Battery closest to the starter

I don't find it matters. I've jumped vehicles from both sides, and it's always worked very well. Something about having two batteries putting out however many CCA each. Jump started a 7.3 PowerStroke that was completely dead (guy had just sat there for about 6 hours listening to the radio). Hook up cables, truck starts right up.

Just remember, black to negative, red to positive.

No, red to positive, black to negative. Do the sparky one first for safety. Better yet, black to frame.

Where did you guys mount the actual plug? Right now mine's ziptied to the lower bumper, inside on one of the supports the foglights use.

I've got my plug ziptied next to the block heater plug. I usually keep that plug inside.
