How Is The Battery Secured In?

[GazzyG]

Got my t-sport a few weeks ago now. Just wondering if anybody can post any pics on how the Battery is secured?

Mine can just slide about, it has nothing holding it secure.

Does anyone know how much the black plastic covers are to cover the top bit of the engine? (Maybe 'leepulsar' knows if he reads this!).

Thanks alot...

you should have a clamp which sits on top of the Battery one side bolts on front slam panel and the other side hooks under Battery tray would post a pic but dont have a clue how lol and ill price a plastic trim up tomorrow

If you excuse my little fuseholder which sits on it, the bar underneath is part of the Battery clamp, which holds the Battery in place.

You don't really need the negative Battery cover as such, it's more the postive battery cover you really need, incase anything makes contact with it and earths with anything metal.

Nope, it's 4AWG size cable from maplins

Much cheaper than the main branded named stuff you can get
