My battery is in my trunk...

[KimberlyS13]

I haven't had any issues as of yet with my battery in my hatch.. but I want to secure it somehow. Right now it is just sitting back there and is in need of a little tlc. Does anyone else have their battery in the hatch that would be willing to share pics or ideas?Thanks much!

oh btw, if anyone remembers me from a post a while back my engine fire turned out to be my starter shorting out.. only a $385 fix, nothing else was ruined BUT then 3 days after having it out of the shop 2 of my fuel injectors died.. dont worry I have 4 Venom fuel injectors on the way... trying to find pink covers for them however....

autozone has a battery box for 12 bucks that i used. 4 screws into the body of the car in the trunk and its mounted securely

:I used the same one. Not flashy but gets the job done.

using stock battery or a sealed battery (i.e. optima, etc)?

Stock battery, you need to go w/ full enclosure w/ proper way of venting the fumes from battery out of the car, else bad things will happen.

optima style battery, you can use all sorts of fancy smancy holders - you can search for my diy relocation thread, shows the mount I used... actually, why not, here it is:



may be for sale, by the way .
