Hey guys pirahna list 2 different trays the btsgv amd btsgv04 the first one only fits an 8imch battery were as the btsgv04 fits a 10 inch optima d34

Looking at the pictures included the btsgv04 looks like it will fit my 2004 GV sport but pirahna don't seem willing to confirm this. The btsgv says it suits cars with abs, but the btsgv04 doesn't say anything about abs???

I want to order the btsgv04 as I want to run the optima d34 has anyone fitted this tray to a 2.5 GV with abs??

300 bucks? I genuinely had no idea a battery tray costed anywhere near that much.

Time for me to tap a few sheetmetal fab-shop contacts on the shoulder, I think.

Oh, and it will fit the ABS model. All of the ABS stuff is on the other side (where you'd put the battery, if it weren't for all of the ABS gear).

Wow wee, go to supercheap or an auto parts store and buy a universal battery tray for about $20 and fab up some supports. Those prices are just ridiculous.

The ABS bracket fits the optima but you have to bend down the sides and put it on its side. Stupidly expensive and the amount of fab you have to do the fit it is the same as going from scratch.

I thought the abs parts were all up near the drivers side firewall?
