having a multitude of connectors on the same post can leave connection problems if things aren't tight -- which can produce arcs, sparks, and broken circuits.
Thank you for the excellent insight regener8ed! Is there any chance you could do a small write up with pictures detailing your set up for the wiring? I'd like to do it properly when the time comes, but I know I don't have the knowledge.

No that doesnt happen to me, and I also have HID'S. Plus my LEDs are connected to my battery. It's not splice into my headlights or anything.
