Hadn't thought of that, weld some plates to the car and then bolt the battery tray to that

One of the Reasons I bought reasonably cheap suspension. I think I'll need custom weight springs made up anyway so no point spending big money on these.

That's Engineers for you...
They plug the info into the computer which adds the recommended safety margins, then they bend the perameters to add some additional comfort....then double the first number thought of and add that and Voila their professional Indemnity Insurance is never used......but it costs the client 50% more

No calcs done here mate, everythings just desinged to withstand a small nuclear blast
Or an idiot in a fork lift truck 
50x50 too much? Depends on the wall thickness
If you were to turn your long lengths so they stood up, then weld the four smaller pieces at the bottom, you'll start to form a tray for the batteries to sit in. Plus, the tube would be stiffer in the vertical moment (just thought I'd throw that in to make it sound like I'm still an engineer ).
Although, for braking the best compromise might be one tube vertical, one kept horizontal with a battery clamp on the tube that's kept horizontal...

Yeah, I always did like the MK2 rear lights, I think the MK3 ones look a tad lame and out of proportionIcecavern said:
Mk3 Mirrors on my cordy
Just finished rewiring and fitting Mk3 Ibiza mirrors onto the Cordy
The stubby one looks![[B)]](/forums/styles/seatcupra/oldforumsmileys/shades.gif "Cool [B)]")
I think I might have to get a stubby for the drivers side too...
Also finished painting the front 312mm calipers and carriers
Hopefully this weekend I'l get to sort those troublesome bolts and I'll have 2 TT comps on the car. Then remove the front end parts ready for new bearings and hubs

You all want pics of Imperial Blue Mk3 mirrors on a Cantabrian Cordy ? 
Stu - Plan at the minute is to keep the colour as it is, but have a full respray to freshen it up is on the cards.
