I am going to be mounting an optima in the trunk of my notch. I was wondering what battery tray would work best? Does optima make their own tray that is made for their battery? I'm sure someone has done this before Thanks for the help

Well,,, being that you will be mounting this in the trunk YOU WILL WANT to mount it on the PASSENGER SIDE ***NOT**** the drivers side.You can pick up a relocation kit from any Kragens/Or any auto parts store for like $30.00/MAX,and it comes with a enclosed battery tray/BOX,all appropriate cables with enuff cable to go from a front mount battery to back mount changeover........... etc...........
