Stock battery cable routing - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I'm getting ready to clean up a passenger's side inner fender and I noticed it has a line of holes along the bottom skirt. The ones in my trucks have them too. I wonder, did they secure the positive battery cable en route to the starter with some kind of attachments in these holes?

From the reference thread.

Generally I'd say your on the right track.

Thanks, I too saw a few pics that hinted at the cable being secured there. Nothing absolute though. I suppose the clips were similar to the plastic pop in wire loom ones and they were garbage as soon as you changed the cable.
