battery relocation
so I want to clean up the engine bay. How do I go about relocating the battery?
what is a good place for it? I want to use a light weight battery. This may sound dumb but could I use one of the extra glove boxes? |

Just keep in mind that if you use a conventional battery, it will eventually erode the metal around it, as it sloshes and ages. Also, if you go inside the cabin, it will emit odor and even odorless fumes that are bad for you and your occupants.

Yeah glove box is a bad idea. I would say the trunk (or back for you lb's) is your best option.
