it seems in yours gravity is doing it.......... not many mot testers know to look under the seat in a landy for the battery, it should be a strap tho i think

I've not had one fitted in yonks - MOTer never looks - one in the Disco isn't secured either and its visible.
My battery box was rust so i put a large sheet of glass fibre in - knocked those stupid little J-bolt boxes off the outside and poured a cup of resin over it and made the battery box into a fibreglass battery box. Solid
My plan is to get some threaded rod, drill two holes and mount a big square washer on the outside and weld a nut on, same on the inside except just tighten the nut down and that will give you something to mount your crossbar onto. Solid as a rock.
Pictures to follow - one day.
