So before my next autocross...

[Vethen]

i need to get a battery tie down for my e30... anyone know where to get one?

[Emre]

Parts car or junkyard would be your best bet. The OEM part is fine.

[Dirtbleed]

Make one from threaded rod and aluminum stock

that was an idea of mine but i dont know what the make-shift mount will bolt onto. where is urs bolted?

[CrazyB]

You can bolt to the plastic tray the battery sits in.

[Gnarles]

any auto parts store will have a universal tie-down that will work.

[Dirtbleed]

bolt to plastic tray with some fender washers.

thanks guy :up:

i was lost for a bit... lol

[rwh11385]

Yeah, I need one too.

Is this really a feature on all new hondas, as stated by the Finance manager, "Honda's typically rate as the top stolen vehicles in the nation and this is Honda's attempt to mitigate that!"

[Fair!]

Here's my E30 home brew mount. Take the fiberglass battery trey out and use J-hooks thru that and then make a top mount. This is a smaller AGM style battery in place of the stock unit.



Good luck,

LOL,

as sad as this sounds... i ended up going to petsmart and getting a really short leash and just strapping it down that way xD

Aha that's dope, I went to the drag strip in Bakerfield called Famoso and completely forgot to put my tie down back on and while they were expecting my car the inspector himself said to take off my belt and use that haha I got to race that day! :)
