as comparethemeerkat.com would say; SIMPLES!!
Put battery in spare wheel well or beside it, run a wire from there to a distrubution point where all your positive wires go to currently, jus take earths to a point and earth battery to body work in boot, half hour job

Get a distibution block and put the red wires that goes to the + on the battery and cut the terminals off and screw them into the distribution block (or however the design of it is) and run a power feed to that from the + of the battery now in the boot.
Take the a wire off the - of the battery and earth it in the boot somewhere.
Get the remaining negative wires that are in the front and earth them somewhere in the engine bay might need another distribution block.
Also get a proper battery box because if you crash you might get battery acid all over the place and on your face and in your eyes.

As said, spare wheel well looks tidy. Edit your title to include battery relocation pic request or the like, get an idea off other people on here.

Slightly off topic, does anybody have pictures of a nova with a really smooth engine bay? I think it was a beige colour?

Well it involves moving parts from the engine bay elsewhere and doesnt seem 'new thread material'

Just ask for pics of it in a thread mate, more chance of people seeing it and replying, they were posted on here a while back so someone will have them
