Help fitting battery in boot?

Post Wed Sep 20, 2006 4:06 pm

Just got my battery in boot kit delivered for my M50 but need a bit of advice!

Am i right to assume the main lead runs down the drivers side along the edge of the carpet?
Also in the pic there is a clear plastic box with a tube on,where does this go and what is it for?

Thanks in advance

the plastic bottle goes underneath battery tray through gromet in the well.
the cable runs in the grooved section of drivers inner sill and up past speaker. cheers bob.
