I know I can obviously buy a box, the cables etc all seperately, but does anyone know of a decent supplier for a complete kit for remounting the battery in the boot that will get it to me by thursday, as if i go and ebay all the bits seperately im sure some of them wont get here in time.
not got time to go and pilfer from a bmw at scrapyard etc as im away till friday and got loads of other stuff to do friday morning so want as simple a solution as possible to get hold of.

Demon tweeks are an option, but obviously they charge like a wounded bull

 

ive got the full length power cable to the boot from an e36 if any help then is it just a tray you need?

 

That would be ideal mate, but im unlikely to see you to collect it before friday sadly, unless you are going to middlesex RS tonight?

off the top of my head I need:
Battery cable (can just chop up jump leads if I need to)
connector block under bonnet
Enclosed battery box (will sink into floor)
an isolation switch for the battery
battery terminals
earthing post to weld or bolt onto the chassis

Think thats about it.

Trouble is, like I said, i need the whole lot at my place by thursday to stand a chance of doing it as only got a few hours free friday morning and still have engine mounts and an oil change and some brake alterations and a few other things to do as well, so no time for any messing about.

 

the bmw stuff is it a remote distribution block? as I need one for when I fit my master isolation on my race car
what mode bmw are they off and what do they look like?

can get it couriered if any use? has jump start cable thing on it too. if you want give me a call when your free and i can prob have a little run about and get them as ain too busy atm tbh. know few trade places i get staff discount at too from mates mum

 

If you have free time at the moment grab clarkey and head over to middlesex tonight and bring it with you, i'll shout you both a meal

this is where i got all of my stuff to do my battery, dont know if it is of any use to you?

 

Thanks ronnie, have used them before for smaller stuff but didnt think of them for this!
Paul is going to try a local trade supplier in a bit and see what he can come up with and run them over to me tonight (top man!) but that will do for anything he cant find

looks like just the battery box im not sorted for between paul and VWP now, so will just order that from somewhere.

 

no prob mate, least i can do amount of times you've helped me out

 

caraudiodirect for 0 awg power wire, and battery terminals. Send them a webnote with your order number and express that you NEED it by thursday. Dont know what the rest of the stuff you need is..

 

ive got the zero gauge and terminals for him already

 

Ah good. I just realised I have 5m of 0 awg and a pair of batt terminals and fuses in the garage not in use. But your a lot closer to him than I am

 

poss, still the other side of london

 

Merlin Motorsport, Rally design, Demon Tweeks etc etc


Surely any of the typical motorsport suppliers can avail.
