Now for instillation the manual has a few different way to go about getting power. One of the drawings is for it to go direst to the battery positive and negative. Any other ways that are better?

That is the best way to do it. Run a good thick Positive wire thru a fuse link to the battery. As far as the ground you don't have to run it to the battery, just a good ground source. If you are going thru a firewall use a rubber gromit to keep from shorting out your wires.
