The mount is crafted to support a lightweight battery, reducing front - end vehicle weight and creating more space in the engine bay for intercooler piping. Made from locally sourced 5052 marine - grade aluminum, it's hand - formed, finished, and riveted at MeLe Design Firm in Portland, OR. It comes in Raw Aluminum or Powdercoated Black. Features include CNC machining, TIG welding, a built - in battery tie - down with a quick - release pin, track testing, a unique serial number for quality control, all necessary stainless - steel mounting hardware, and a direct fit with no drilling required.
Using this battery mount is easy. First, gather all the necessary stainless - steel mounting hardware that comes with the mount. Then, simply install it in your 2008 - 2014 Subaru Forester or 2009 - 2013 Subaru Forester XT without the need for any drilling. Make sure to choose the right battery from the list of compatible ones, like the Odyssey PC925 or Braille G30. When installing, use the built - in battery tie - down with the quick - release pin to secure the battery properly. For maintenance, keep it clean. If you have the raw aluminum version, you might want to apply a protective coating to prevent oxidation. The powdercoated black version is more resistant to rust and scratches, but still, avoid harsh chemicals when cleaning. Remember, each mount has a unique serial number, which can be useful for quality - control purposes if you ever need to contact the manufacturer.
