Battery tender wiring

What are my options for hooking up a battery tender since there are no constant 12v outlets in the car? I do not drive often so I like to keep my batteries on a tender to keep them fully charged.

I currently have it hooked up via alligator clamps to the terminals, hood propped this isn't very convenient!

Use the connector on the right instead. Bolts to the factory terminals

I use one and it works well. You can close the hood on the one hooked up to battery. Have cables come out rear of hood near windshield..this is easiest or out front of hood when shut. No issues either way. No need to keep it propped up. I use a Genius tender.

I have these on both my car's battery terminals and only connect to my Noco Genius when I need to charge or tend the battery. Otherwise I just secure/tuck the wire away

That's what I bought - except mine is 6 ft since I back in and the chargers plugged in on the passenger side. (and no I cant swap sides because the 240z is torn apart on the other side)
