Dual Battery Tray for NM v6 exceed

[Burko]

Peoples, tried searching subject but just get too much non relevant info.

I am needing to install a dual batt tray in my v6 exceed NM.

What I need is info from someone who has done it and pics if possible.

I know I have to move the charcoal canister but what about the cruise control module ( or whatever that funky black thing is next to charcoal canister )

Does the tray sit beside or above this? do I have to move it? I think I saw the Piranha one say you unbolt and attach to tray but I cannot see in any pics.

Thanks in advance

I mounted an ARB tray in my NM GLS, I don't have the rear air conditioner of the exceed, so am unsure if this will be a problem for you.
The only thing needed to do is remove the radiator overflow bottle mounting bracket from the original battery tray, and mount it to the new tray with the supplied hardware. One hose from the charcoal canister needs replacing with a longer one, they supply the hose too.
No relocation of canister required, cruise control motor stays in the same place.
Very happy and professional looking. I didn't take pictures of the operation, but will take some tonight to show the finished product. If the rain stops!

Here is a pic showing clearance for cruise control motor and air conditioner regas point. There is actually is a few millimeters clearance under the battery mount plate, it shouldn't touch.
