Default battery boxes in stripped hatches, lets see some pics.

im going to strip the rear of my car pretty soon. just trying to get an idea where/how to place the battery box?

also did you fabricate or buy your battery box? I have a optima red top battery.

By the way this is not my daily driver so dont bother telling me to keep my interior, i have another hatch with interior if i need to haul people around.

good links, by the way my battery is already relocated to the back but it is currently on a boat battery tray type deal similar to the factory tray which is bolted to the thing that covers the spare tire.

I like the second links location with the plastic battery box. i guess that is pretty much the best spot to put the box.

Here is a pic of my battery relocated It's still not finished. I want to make the wire more organized, but you get the idea.

Did you weld or bolt on that bracket? looks good by the way.
