Moving battery to the passenger side like a renault van

[djinuk]

Just wondering how difficult it is to move the battery towards the passenger side on a renault 5 gt turbo, like on a renault van.
Whats required ?, i have a plastic battery tray from a renault van, generally does everything else reach ?

Batteries are on the passenger side on the GT Turbo :confused:

Dunc i'ts easy mate everything reaches just re-route starter thick cable and change position of battery earth. You have the plastic tray use the battery clamp and bolt and job done.

Less thing's to rust with the plastic tray in place:agree:

Id probably keep it in the passenger side on a gtt. Weight distribution and that.
