Battery and Oil Tank holders wanted

Anyone got a source for any nicely priced strong holders for an Optima battery and a remote oil tank? I'll make something if needs be but I'd rather not

I do a CNC billet optima tray that's pretty damn sexy. Could knock up a matching oil tray easily enough and we're just about to send away a bunch of stuff for anodising...

Oooh yeah that is nice!! I'll pull the oil tank out tomorrow, no reason why it can't be modified to work with that too. Take it the anodisers do black?

Thanks for that Charlie, yes they can indeed anodise in black!

We could easily cut or engrave 'Slayer' or '666' in the top rather than the slots if you want to be fancy too?

That can version is awesome!!

Cheers, Larby

Thanks Brad, I was recommended Burwell by someone else too.

Larby and AD at Atec over here are taking care of these now though, a modified version of the holder Charlie posted for the Optima, and a custom one for my oil tank as they're quite different to the Merc ones. Anodised black with Bernico machined into them, can't wait
