Hi ytt105 and no mate you can’t do that.
Sorry mate, just having a lend of you.
When the D4 first came out, there was a bit of a worry that a battery fitted in the engine bay may be effected by the heat.
It is not but, to be safe, my first D4 kits had the battery set up in the cargo area almost exactly the same way you are planning to.
So, you will have no problems doing what you are considering.
Some suggestions
If you fit a set of Anderson plugs to the cable in the rear cargo area, you can remove the battery when it’s not needed.
Giving you the use of the 7 seats when needed.
Next, if you decide to fit the Anderson plugs in the rear, if you use 120 amp Anderson plugs, the terminals are big enough to fit 2 x 6B&S cable in each terminal, so you can use the terminals as the junction for the 6B&S.
This greatly simplifies the installation.
You only need to fit a circuit breaker in the cabling connected to the battery’s positive terminal, again, simplifying the installation.
This will give you an idea of the set up.
