    What's going on here?

    Hello,

    So, there's a noise reducer, connection for the dual battery? What is this mess?

    The battery system is not ideal, battery in the storage compartment in the rear.

    What's overall opinion on battery boxes that can be plugged into the 12v socket vs dual battery?

    My thoughts are to remove the lot..

    Would appreciate knowledge and opinion.

    Do you have SLS? if not, the compressor shelf is a suitable spot for an aux battery

    Before I had a Land Rover I did not have any torque wrenches. Now I have three.

    There is also a kit for a battery tray under the bonnet,but the heat from the turbo will kill the battery rather quickly.

    In the rear is the best option if the compresser shelf bracket is not suitable.

    Yours needs a rewire,Tim from Traxide on here may be able to help,he makes up the dual battery kits.

    There was a kit that fitted two batteries lengthwise in the same spot as the original battery. ECU has to move and the jack needs a new home.

    x2 for traxide.

    That cant all just be for the auxillary battery , unless there are other items running off it .

    Pull it out and start again , there are several options but you fit a larger A/H battery in the rear than you will under the bonnet.

    Cheers Ean
