Thats what was on the 200 a second battery tray. But on ABS 300's the air box is in the way so a battery won't fit there

My understanding (and from what I have measured up), is that if you have a snorkel fitted, and relocate the power-steering reservoir, you can easily fit a second battery in the mirror position to the primary.

If anybody else has info I'm keen to hear from you also.

my 300 (with Snorkle) is the mirror image of the primary...didnt have to move the PAS resovior..but did have to move an actuator/solenoid that was fixed to the inner wing via rubber stand-off feet....it had something to do with the egr/vac system, which had been disconnected anyway.

The Jack is now in a tea-crate in the back, together with tools/spares, as is the wheel-chock

EDIT
Oops....mine doesnt have ABS, I guess that makes a big difference..

Cheers for the info mate, is there any chance you could include some pics for the rest of us considering the same kind of install?
