How do you secure battery?

[paulandchez]

Van failed mot today and one item was batteries not secured.

I have one of the Bosch S5 and a leisure one both fitted under the seats. They're a good fit and only move a little, but how do you guys secure yours?

Thanks

We have diesel so our vehicle battery is in the engine bay, but our Leisure battery is under the nearside front seat, and that is held in place by a 3-4mm thick folded metal plate that is fixed down by a bolt at the top front edge and which pushes down on the extended skirt at the base of the battery to hold it fast.

Ok thanks for the pointer

We've got swivel seats so ours is like this:

You just need a bracket that will stop battery falling out or shaking loose if your vehicle fell over - thats all they're looking for. Doesn't need to be anything special as long as it does the job.

Thanks guys. I've got swivel seats too. Spoke to Mick at NWVW today and should be able to get everything I need for all the issues from him

Another time he's saved me
