Sorry the battery tray has a groove to stop the wire underneath from rubbing against the car as it is a live wire if it rubs it will short on the body and melt

Sweet. Thanks for the heads up :wink:

Had to get a replacment battery and turned out it was to big fit in standard small mk4 battery box. So sourced a disel one. Looks nice and covered again now  :grin:
