🚙 DESIGNED FOR THE NISSAN PATROL GQ
This Projecta Heavy Duty Dual Battery Tray is designed for compatible Nissan Patrol GQ vehicles covering the stated 1989 to 1997 model-year range.
A vehicle-specific battery tray provides a cleaner solution than adapting a generic mounting platform to the available engine-bay space.
This is particularly useful in touring and off-road vehicles where secure battery mounting, bonnet clearance and clearance from surrounding engine-bay components all need to be considered carefully.
⚠️ IMPORTANT: Confirm the exact Nissan Patrol GQ model, engine configuration and engine-bay layout before ordering. Model year alone does not guarantee identical fitment across every engine variant, specification or modified vehicle.
🔋 IDEAL FOR DUAL-BATTERY INSTALLATIONS
An auxiliary battery can provide a dedicated power source for compatible touring, camping and vehicle accessories when incorporated into a correctly designed dual-battery electrical system.
Depending on the battery capacity and complete system design, an auxiliary battery may support compatible equipment such as:
- ❄️ 12V fridges and freezers
- 💡 Camp and work lighting
- 📱 USB and device charging
- 📡 Communications equipment
- 🔌 12V accessory outlets
- 🏕️ Touring and camping accessories
- ⚡ Compatible inverter systems
The Projecta tray provides the physical mounting platform for the auxiliary battery and forms one component of the complete dual-battery system.
⚠️ IMPORTANT: The battery tray itself does not charge, isolate or electrically protect the auxiliary battery. A complete installation may require suitable charging equipment, cable, circuit protection and battery-management components.
🛡️ HEAVY-DUTY ENGINE BAY MOUNTING
Engine-bay battery installations are exposed to heat, vibration and constant vehicle movement, making secure battery mounting particularly important.
Projecta's heavy-duty battery-tray range provides a dedicated mounting solution for compatible automotive auxiliary-battery installations.
A purpose-designed vehicle-specific tray can also provide a cleaner and more organised result than improvised or universal mounting arrangements.
🔧 VEHICLE-SPECIFIC FITMENT
The supplied product information states that Projecta's latest heavy-duty battery trays are engineered to fit specific vehicle types.
This approach is intended to reduce the inconvenience of modifying either the tray or surrounding vehicle components during installation.
Advantages of a vehicle-specific battery tray can include:
- Purpose-designed mounting position
- Cleaner engine-bay installation
- Reduced need for fabrication
- More straightforward auxiliary-battery mounting
- Better integration with the intended vehicle layout
⚠️ IMPORTANT: Existing aftermarket accessories or previous vehicle modifications may still affect fitment. Inspect the intended mounting position before installation.
🏕️ BUILT FOR TOURING, CAMPING & OFF-ROAD POWER
The Nissan Patrol GQ is a popular platform for touring, camping, towing and off-road builds where additional auxiliary battery capacity can be valuable.
A correctly installed auxiliary battery allows compatible accessories to operate from a separate battery system rather than relying solely on the vehicle's starting battery.
The Projecta tray provides the dedicated mounting foundation needed to securely position that auxiliary battery within the engine bay.
⚡ COMPLETE DUAL-BATTERY SYSTEM CONSIDERATIONS
A battery tray is only one part of a complete auxiliary-battery installation.
Depending on the vehicle, selected battery and intended electrical loads, the installation may also require:
- 🔋 Suitable auxiliary battery
- ⚡ Appropriate DC-DC charger or charging system
- 🔌 Correctly sized battery cable
- 🛡️ Suitable fuse or circuit-breaker protection
- 🔩 Quality cable lugs and battery terminals
- 🔗 Suitable battery isolation or charging control equipment
- 📍 Secure cable routing and mechanical protection
⚠️ IMPORTANT: Charging equipment must be selected to suit both the vehicle electrical system and the chemistry and charging requirements of the auxiliary battery.
🔋 BATTERY SIZE & COMPATIBILITY
The supplied product information does not state the exact maximum battery dimensions, battery group size, maximum battery weight or terminal configuration supported by this tray.
Before selecting an auxiliary battery, confirm:
- Battery length
- Battery width
- Battery height
- Battery terminal position
- Terminal and cable clearance
- Battery weight
- Bonnet clearance
- Clearance from surrounding engine-bay components
⚠️ IMPORTANT: Do not assume every automotive, AGM or lithium battery will fit this tray. Confirm the selected battery dimensions and installation requirements against current Projecta fitment information before purchase.
🌡️ ENGINE BAY BATTERY CONSIDERATIONS
Because this tray is intended for an engine-bay installation, the selected auxiliary battery must also be suitable for the environmental conditions found under the bonnet.
Engine bays can expose batteries to:
- High ambient temperatures
- Heat cycling
- Vehicle vibration
- Dust and contamination
- Moisture
⚠️ IMPORTANT: Not all lithium batteries are approved for engine-bay installation. Confirm the specific battery manufacturer's temperature, mounting and environmental requirements before fitting a lithium battery under the bonnet.
🔧 CHECK MODIFICATIONS & EXISTING ACCESSORIES
Nissan Patrol GQ vehicles are frequently modified for touring, off-road or work use, and existing accessories can affect available engine-bay space.
Potential items that may interfere with the intended battery-tray position include:
- Aftermarket electrical equipment
- Air-intake or snorkel components
- Air compressors
- Additional filtration equipment
- Engine conversions or modifications
- LPG-related equipment
- Other under-bonnet accessories
⚠️ IMPORTANT: Inspect the actual vehicle before installation if it has been modified from its original configuration.
