Anyone have ant recommendations for a battery box/hold down? I got new WW pans and need something to hold my red optima.

I am thinking about something like this so far and bolting it to the floor. Thanks for the ideas.

Street car or strip car? The last post you have is similar to the battery hold down in the Ghetto Ghia Race car. It is not in the compartment with me so it does not need to be in a box. For a driver, that hold down will work nicely, but a good tech will not let it pass if it is inside the driver compartment,...just a thougt. There are some nice ones on eBay too.
