Default Jumper block for battery under the hood

Is there a battery jumper block somewhere under the hood of a Z06 to connect a battery charger too? If so could someone post a picture? I don't own one but asking for a friend.

Connect it to the battery. You can still close the hatch, there will be no interference with the cord. There is enough room between the hatch and fascia to prevent any scratching or other issue.

I always go direct to the battery. I take the shortest route possible. Car is away for its 3rd winter with a tender on it that way!

If using a short term charger hook up to battery and leave the hatch slightly ajar, the inside lights will go off on timer!

Although I agree with the other posters in that it is easier to connect directly to the battery terminals, I'll pass on to you were your buddy can connect to the remote (+) and (-) terminals under the engine deck lid.

1. Raise the deck lid and go to the right side of the engine compartment.
2. Open the engine compartment fuse block lid.
3. Connect the (+) jumper cable to the remote (+) terminal located on the outside of the fuse block first.
4. Connect the (-) jumper cable to the furthest to the front exhaust manifold bolt.

That should do it.
