Nice job, i like the way you turned the Battery, saves a little room. and the ground connection is good idea, nice touch on the right side.
However i dont think i would buy this particular design. That room you saved is now lost, as the whole area next to battery is now not very accessible, should have just mounted battery in middle.
how about a design that will hold battery, brace towers and still be able to use the area as real trunk space. prefer bolt in type, battery in either corner.
Hope i am not too harsh, but you asked.....

I agree with Blunt. The web should also just have a few holes (large to small) insted of all those little ones all over the place.
Otherwise, nice job.

I have made them all different ways, with the battery in the middle and off to either side, I build them to the customers rough idea and then make it my own design. Thanks for the input, Brent _________________ '75 e12 Custom

This bar can easily be bolted in the way I made it, it just needs a few holes drilled in the ears and the battery tray. _________________ '75 e12 Custom

Like I said this is a one off for a customer and I can easily change the design, I like to make each one a bit different so everyone has something more unique, since most everyone has the same bar in trunk. I ask about $200 plus or minus about $50 for the bars I build depending on the design, if some people dont want the battery tray or just want a simple bar to go across it would be less, I do all custom fabrication so if you give me a design you want I can build it to you specs for a little more money. _________________ '75 e12 Custom
