For anyone that has a station wagon that did not come equipped with a second battery and have since added one, what are you using for a tie down? Is the one pictured below a factory bracket? I see GP Factor has a clamp but it still says to use in addition with the bracket.
If it is factory, does anyone know a part number or where to source one?
Considering a 165ah battery that's 8.5" but its a tight fit under to stay level with the factory plastic trim covers. Agile is putting the 200ah Victron in and that is almost 9" high and fits but does not leave a lot of room for the system to breath. The redarc is an option but I haven't seen anything from a technical standpoint that warrants the $1000 delta over the battery I’m considering. It is only 7.5" tall so will likely tuck in nicer. All moot if i cant secure it down.
