Sliding battery tray ?

[Flames7607]

Hi,

Anyone fitted a sliding battery tray to their car ? (the sort that lock when in the closed position) I'm looking for a better option for my Chimaera, where I can slide the battery back towards the passengers seat to make it more accessible for removal. I don't want to locate the battery in another part of the car, and it's kept away from any power source to leave it on trickle charge, hence it needs removing/jumping regularly.

So, has anyone fitted one, or researched it ?

Something like this ? http://www.powergearus.com/products/trays

Cheers,

Interesting option, and I can see his useful it would be considering how deep into the footwell the battery is sited, but I would hope for some really strong latches on that tray, as the last thing you want is a great big heavy lump like a battery deciding it wants to exit pretty quick in the event of an accident or the latch gives way.

Indeed, maybe the addition of a strap across the rear of the battery ?
