Wow! Look at all of that space!, Battery Relocation! Options

[Slick]

Today I decided to relocate my battery. I'm a novice with electrics so I was a bit hesitant about doing it, but all came out fine and I'm pretty pleased with myself.

Before:



More painful moments of drilling holes into my car.





I didn't jack the car up or I would have noticed that I could have run the cable through the plastic guard instead of tiestripping it to it. Oh well. Project for another day.





Finished product!



And, TA-DAAA! More space? For what, I don't know. But I'll think of something.

Hey dude, I don't know how safe it is to run that positive cable underneath the car like that, I had lifted my carpet and tucked it underneath.. underneath the rear seats, behind the rear speaker plastics, thru underneath the carpet by the door sill and up through the firewall loom rubber boot i put a 12mm hole in it.

Also its best if you run 2 ground cables, one to the chassis at the back and the other to the original bolt on the engine block. -- We had cold start troubles after having an immobiliser alarm installed, due to not grounding at the engine. adding in this ground to the engine solved the problem.
