Hey all, i was thinking about trying a battery relocation to the trunk. For the purpose of helping with our awkward weight ratio's, and make some more space in the engine bay. has anyone else tried this? any pictures of those who have? sorry if this is a waste, i didnt see much from the search on this.

bought a relocation kit on ebay for simplicity sake. it was ~$90 IIRC and worked perfect. grounded everything up front, ran + wire along the left side of the engine bay and down the firewall right next to the EVAP hardlines. then continued toward the back along the plastic hardline cover (using zipties to keep it in place) and up around the side of the gas tank near the driver side rear wheel well. and up through the plastic cap that is ~1foot off the rear seats on the left side. the car is a hatchback, not sure how much different it would be for a coupe.
best of luck. I might be able to do a write-up later. GL!
