Pictures of relocated batteries
Anyone have pics of where they relocated their batteries or just a description. I need to move mine and would like some ideas for placement. Thanks in advance

I was told that you needed to vent your batteries. Should those batteries be vented? I know for racing who cares, but for driving on the street since they are physically in the passenger compartment should they be?

Keep in mind that some sanctioning bodies will require it to be in a specific type of box/case. Even if it is a sealed or gel battery.
Also - if you relocate the battery to somewhere other than the engine compartment, the aforementioned sanctioning bodies will require you to put a cut-off switch in the rear of the car.

Looking @ the Gauge Size of the Wire's on the side of the Battery, you must have one hell of a Sound System!!!
Where did you find those Battery Post?
I bought the Battery Relocation kit from Summit Racing $115.00us this fall and have a new Optima I plan on doing the same as your install.
I think that a majority of 1st Gen owners use that Location.
Great Job
