Well, you need some soldering skills first and foremost...it's not too difficult, but it helps to know how the soldering works.

You can purchase the Dean's connectors online at various hobby websites. Get the 2 prong type. I found them for $1.40 per pair including the heat shrink. If you check out AtomicMods.com, there is a How-To for installing the Pro-Kit. It involves drilling the chassis to make holes for the tie-wraps to secure the batteries. The How-To has lots of pictures. It is actually very easy.

Of course, you will need a Li-Ion charger. Rob at AtomicMods sells 'em for about $20. It comes with a Deans connector already on it, and it connects directly to the batteries on the car. They charge up fairly fast.

Basically what I did was copy the Pro-Kit setup. If you buy batteries from AtomicMods, get the ones that have the solder tabs. Those makes things much easier.

Besides that, there is not a whole lot to it. Good luck! A little bit of effort will make your car haul booty. Make sure you have AWD, and you should also get the metal bearings. The power of the Li-Ions will wear out the stock bushings.

** One more thing...You can see from the pic, I used upgraded wiring (18 guage) to connect the batteries to the board. If you are not comfortable in doing that, you can just solder a Dean's connector to the stock wiring to make it easier.
