The blue wire goes to the jumper wire between the cells. Like this one.

You can always charge each side seperately as a 1s pack also if you dont have the proper balance lead.

Yes, the blue wire on your setup will simply go the bridge between the two halves of the saddle pack. I would suggest having a harness wired up simply to balance charge and then attach to the packs in the car using good 4mm bullets. I think that will be the simple life for this style battery. No reason to have the balance plug bouncing around in the car at all :)
