ARB Battery Tray and earth wire harness

[dugite57 Junior Member Find all posts View Profile Close dugite57]

Put the ARB battery tray in on the driver's side this arvo. Noticed some interference with a wiring harness and a pile of earth wires. I've sort of "forced" them aside, but they seem tight and I was just wondering what others have done in this regard? Car's a late 2014 D4D GXL facelift.

Thanks

I removed the earthwires and then fitted the tray as normal. Once tray was in, i put the wires back on and haven't had issues. I'm running mine with an Optima Yellow Top D34. No issues yet.

Hey Vossy77, as you're in Perth, try Goodchild Enterprises in Cockburn/Jandakot area. I paid around $250 for the blue top (same as yellow top but with extra terminals).

Was $295 from Batteries Plus (had to quote their gumtree advert, or it was going to be $335). If you can still get it for $250 odd then go for it. The battery is in the car but does not get wired up till Friday so I'm unable to give feedback.

i haven't hooked up the Optima yet. But I have used them in my previous vehicle which was for car audio install so yes I am quite happy with the Optima.
