Celica_John Forums Junkie Location: Sydney Registered: May 2004	Re: Battery box question Tue, 18 January 2005 10:38 I'd have to disagree. I remember my mechanic telling me the battery needs to be heaps secure because vibrations can stuff it (first time i heard that so i'm not sure) anyways my battery is mounted in the boot. I have a bracket underneath the batter which is bolted to the floor. it has two tabs bent perpendicular to the floor with a hole in each end. I got another bracket from the local auto store (everywhere sells em!) that goes over the battery and has two rods with a hook on the end that went through the hole at each end. I also got a battery that doesn't vent vapours. $130ish from lions batterys - parramatta rd burwood. That way i don't need to stuff around with a hose and it's much safer. batterys vent hydrogen -> hydrogen + fuel from surge tank in boot + air + spark from battery = kaAAAAAaaBOOOM! (according to the engineer) I don't have a strap for the lid of my box but I keep the lid on anyway just incase the battery explodes.
