Twin Battery Set up on a Amazon 100 4.7 Petrol ?

[Brian the Sn@il]

Wanting to add a leisure battery to my Amazon 100 4.7 Petrol
I cant find any kits out there for the position of the 2nd battery.
It looks like a Air Filter Box Modification, to free up some space where the large air filter is located.

Has anyone any pictures of this done please ?

Somewhere on here there are pictures of when I did this to my old 100 series that Gav has now.

Theres a few companies over here making and selling kits.

These are the ones we make at work:

I think ARB also possibly do a kit, and maybe BOSS which is the make Chris at FNB sells.

I don't think that would work for the 2UZ V8 we get in the UK Ben, it has a flat rectangular filter / air box which uses up the space that bracket would fit in whereas the 6 cylinder engine options, petrol and diesel, have the cyclonic style air box that leaves room for the extra battery. The 2UZ is supplied with a cyclonic filter in some markets so a UK model can be converted as I did with mine but it's not a cheap option.

Yes, that's on the blue 100 we used to have (Gav's now), not the silver one we have now, not got round to tinkering with that one much yet There was a thread on ih8mud about that conversion as well, probably not hard to find if you search the 100 series section for cyclonic.

Who would be best to contact about the cyclonic Filter Purchase ?
