    On most cars the cables won't reach. Otherwise it's fine.

    You need to put the battery in correctly or you risk fire,circuit damage,explosion or even health damage or death...

    If the cables are connected properly, it does not matter to the battery

    As long as the cables are long enough, you can leave it in permanently.
