Thread: Dual Battery install in the rear storage bin

I made up a drawer unit that housed my Aux battery but was'nt happy with it so I took the unit out and I bought a 5 seater bin trim and mounted battery (a fullriver 120 A/H deepcycle) in there. I cut the back of the trim out to allow for better ventilation as well as putting some holes inside it to air better and run cables. I made some heavy duty u brackets that mount onto the third row seat mounts, made a piece of wood to size to support the weight and sat this under the brackets so I could run my mounting straps under the wood and up over the battery to hold it all in place. There is'nt enough room to use proper battery clamps so I used adjustable straps I had in the shed and its very sturdy and does'nt move. The best part is my battery, Waeco 240v adapter and my invertor are all in there and cant even see them. Unfortunately I had to route my charging cables across the floor behind the second row seat as otherwise my cables would be too short but I will neaten that all up later. I have put 2 x 12v sockets above the vent cover on the same side but will add a couple more to the back of the console later. I checked it all and charging great so I'm happy. Appologies, I know useless thread without pics but my puter is playing up , I will try and get the pics up tonight/ASAP.
