Here is a couple of pictures of mine. it looks like the eye was cut to make a hook this part should go towards the front of the car. The battery is a group 51 Battery which seems to fit quite nicely in there and also Mini alternators are not exactly high output which makes a small battery perfect. I am also going to get a scissor jack which I will store in the space next to the battery.

 

I hope this helps.

 

I guess I can't post the pictures from my PC. DM me and I'll send them to you.

hello everyone

does anyone have the following items installed on their mini and if so could you please supply a photo of the set up

battery box cover, battery clamp

 

mine is a 1963 850.  

 

 

there is a metal bar that clamps down on the battery, and does so by means of two threaded rods, one of which has an "eye" and the other just a simple bend in it.,  i can't figure out how this thing goes together. a picture of the arrangement would be appreciated.  there is provision in the boot for the bolts etc in the form of a metal tag either side of the battery box. 

similarly for the battery cover and strap.  please could someone supply a photo of these items installed.

thanks in advance
