How'd you secure the battery box in the boot?

LOVE what you've done so far!

uses battery plate and then a large plate under the car also.
I have a few items needing some welding (use box for amp racks you see), and have planned to have pieces run across from the larger sides of the battery box which will then also allow a joining piece to go over the top.

Having seen what was thought to be a secure battery in the boot of a 220Coupe end up in the passenger footwell on a visit to Elvington I don't believe it can be over-engineered. They are like lead missiles if you go from speed to zero in short space of time, like a crash. I certainly wouldn't like a 15kg lead weight hurtling towards me at 50mph+

A couple of actually completed jobs (well, mostly, just need to put some cable bases in)

Big shout out to Sean and Jeff for sorting out my blue illuminated DD unit.
Not done final fit as I have more cables to run for the DLS amps as well as the plan to fit a shark fin rather than the supplied DVB-T aerial etc.



WOW ! Fantastic !

Plenty more in the offing

Proving difficult as I did my ribs in 4 weeks ago and still can hardly bend down.
Proving to be very frustrating.

Trying to outsource a few jobs as i'm against the clock before beginning my new job which then will see time becoming an issue.
