check out honda-tech, do a search on battery relocation... there are tons of awesome ideas there... I was very impressed.

Also, keep in mind that if you're planning on going to the track with u'r car and you've relocated your battery you HAVE to have a battery cut off switch on the back of your car.

any time the battery is moved from the stock location you need this. It's gay I know, but keep that in mind as you won't pass tech w/o it.
