show me what holds your back battery

[vandiar2 10+ year member]

trying to think of a way to build housing for my battery. I was thinking of cutting out a big piece of plywood that will fit in the back.. build some kind of 4 side holder I can put my battery in and keep it from sliding. then mount my amp to this piece of wood. basically just having one single unit with everything on it. all i have to do is put it in the trunk, put the main power and ground on the back battery battery.. and be ready to go. i need some ideas on building a holder for the battery though.

Build a false floor out of wood that way you can screw down w/e you need to and it won't slide around.

industrial strength velco in 2"x 2" pads or bigger. my kinetik 1800 goes nowhere with 2 pads under it.

That's good for temporary. I wouldn't do that as a permanent fix though.

really? What I was initially thinking about doing is.. measure out the L & W of the battery and cut 4 pieces of plywood that I can screw each side together and then screw them to the main piece of wood. velcro idea had me thinking though..

I put velcro on the bottom of my box that the batcap came in and just left it in there.
