You can get these clamps at stella maris too, but they are called "marine" and/or MilSpec:

Also shown in the picture in the first link is a power distribution post that I also got from Stella Maris. This allowed me to move all the auxillary wires off the battery and to a remote location, giving a cleaner set up at the battery.

I've had good success with the product from Stella Maris. The parts have a low unit cost, but they have a minimum $15 order...

I'm not sure what fuse box you are using, but can you connect the two cables at the fuse box. Terminate each in a ring terminal then bolt the two rings back-to-back to the fuse box.
