I remember your post about that Rabbitman.. I think we were both having the same trouble at the same time.. Worked ok when warm, but kicked out when cold.. I warrantied a pile of reman VW and Benz starters till I gave up and installed a genuine Bosch drive from a used starter...
+ to + and - to - is the ticket.. Theoretically you will then have the amperage of both batteries available..
The only subtlety is that over time the batteries will age and their charging/discharging characteristics will become different... and they will start to fight each other a bit, since they are chained directly together.
