Nice install andy!! Looks the business now!  How did you find re-locating the battery?? Got any photo\'s??

I\'ve bought a small oddessy battery, but the dragon v-mount leave no room to the side to even install that, so im considering moving to the rear storage bin.

When I did my battery relocation, i eventually relocated it to the other side of the engine bay - i.e. The drivers side.

(I have the dragon V-mount and a red top 25 battery)

Yeah I was looking at that option too, the main thing was i didnt want battery cables running back through the cockpit, but i\'ve been having a think and it might end up better as I can install a battery cut off switch at the same time inside the car doesnt get used that much and is garaged most of the time.  I\'ve also heard that you cant let a dry cell battery go flat as it damages it??

Post by: nikp on January 17, 2007, 03:44:03 PM
Yes, thats true - but what does \'flat\' mean? Mine\'s gone to the point where the engine won\'t turn over, and i just charged it back up no problem.
