Thread: Fitting a big battery into a 200tdi d1?

Hi all
Apologies if this has been discussed before
I'm getting a new battery tomorrow and wanted to get one of the big ones (i think they are called NZ70s or something)
I took a few quick measurements of the battery tray, it looks like it will be a very tight fit
I was wondering if anyone has fitted one into the tray area without to much hassle?
I'm happy to cut miner things which are in the way.

On the Right side, have to hold up the head light wiring while putting it in,
I have moved it since.
I think I had bend the air con pipe a (very) little.
