🔋 Add an auxiliary battery to your Nissan Patrol GU with a purpose-designed heavy-duty battery mounting solution from Projecta.

The Projecta Heavy Duty Dual Battery Tray is engineered for compatible Nissan Patrol GU vehicles from 1999 to 2014, providing a dedicated mounting platform for an auxiliary battery within the vehicle's engine bay.

Rather than adapting a universal battery tray, Projecta's heavy-duty tray range is engineered around specific vehicle applications to provide a cleaner and more straightforward installation.

According to the supplied product information, these trays are designed to install without the inconvenience of modifying the battery tray itself or parts of the vehicle.

🚙 DESIGNED FOR THE NISSAN PATROL GU

This Projecta heavy-duty battery tray is designed for compatible Nissan Patrol GU vehicles covering the stated 1999 to 2014 model-year range.

A vehicle-specific tray provides a neater solution than attempting to adapt a generic battery mounting platform to the available engine-bay space.

This is particularly useful in a 4WD installation where battery security, bonnet clearance and surrounding component clearance all need to be considered.

⚠️ IMPORTANT: Confirm the exact Nissan Patrol model, engine configuration and engine-bay layout before ordering. Model year alone does not guarantee identical fitment across every vehicle configuration.


🔋 IDEAL FOR DUAL-BATTERY INSTALLATIONS

An auxiliary battery provides a separate power source for compatible touring, camping and work accessories when incorporated into a correctly designed dual-battery electrical system.

Depending on the battery capacity and complete electrical installation, an auxiliary battery can support compatible equipment such as:

  • ❄️ 12V fridges and freezers
  • 💡 Camp and work lighting
  • 📱 USB and device charging
  • 📡 Communications equipment
  • 🔌 12V accessory outlets
  • 🏕️ Camping and touring accessories
  • ⚡ Compatible inverter systems

The Projecta tray provides the physical battery mounting platform and forms one part of a complete auxiliary-battery installation.

⚠️ IMPORTANT: The battery tray itself does not charge, isolate or protect the auxiliary battery. A complete installation may require suitable charging equipment, cable, terminals and circuit protection.


🛡️ HEAVY-DUTY ENGINE BAY MOUNTING

Engine-bay battery installations are exposed to vibration, heat and vehicle movement, making secure battery mounting particularly important.

Projecta's heavy-duty battery-tray range provides a purpose-designed mounting solution for compatible automotive auxiliary-battery installations.

A dedicated vehicle-specific tray also helps create a more organised installation 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 need for modification to either the battery tray or surrounding vehicle components during installation.

Advantages of a vehicle-specific battery tray can include:

  • Cleaner engine-bay installation
  • Purpose-designed mounting position
  • Reduced need for fabrication
  • More straightforward battery mounting
  • Better integration with the vehicle layout

⚠️ IMPORTANT: Existing modifications or accessories may affect fitment. Inspect the intended mounting area before installation.


🏕️ BUILT FOR TOURING, CAMPING & 4WD POWER

The Nissan Patrol GU is commonly used for touring, camping, off-road and work applications where additional 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 platform needed to securely locate that auxiliary battery within the engine bay.


⚡ COMPLETE DUAL-BATTERY SYSTEM CONSIDERATIONS

A battery tray is only one component of a properly designed dual-battery system.

Depending on the vehicle, battery chemistry and intended loads, the complete installation may also require:

  • 🔋 Suitable auxiliary battery
  • ⚡ Appropriate DC-DC charger or charging system
  • 🔌 Correctly sized battery cable
  • 🛡️ Fuse or circuit-breaker protection
  • 🔩 Quality cable lugs and battery terminals
  • 🔗 Suitable battery isolation or control equipment
  • 📍 Secure cable routing and mechanical protection

⚠️ IMPORTANT: Charging equipment must be selected to suit both the vehicle electrical system and the chemistry of the auxiliary battery being installed.


🔋 BATTERY SIZE & COMPATIBILITY

The supplied product information does not state the exact maximum battery dimensions, battery group size, battery weight or terminal configuration supported by this tray.

Before selecting an auxiliary battery, confirm:

  • Battery length
  • Battery width
  • Battery height
  • Terminal position
  • Terminal clearance
  • Battery weight
  • Bonnet clearance
  • Clearance from surrounding engine-bay components

⚠️ IMPORTANT: Do not assume every automotive, AGM or lithium battery will fit simply because it is intended for a dual-battery application. Confirm the battery dimensions against the current tray specifications before purchase.


🌡️ ENGINE BAY BATTERY CONSIDERATIONS

Because this tray is intended for an engine-bay installation, the selected auxiliary battery must be suitable for the environmental conditions present in that location.

Engine bays can expose batteries to:

  • High ambient temperature
  • Heat cycling
  • Vehicle vibration
  • Dust and contamination
  • Moisture

⚠️ IMPORTANT: Not all lithium batteries are approved for engine-bay installation. Confirm the battery manufacturer's mounting and temperature requirements before installation.


🔧 CHECK EXISTING ACCESSORIES BEFORE INSTALLATION

Many Nissan Patrol GU vehicles have been modified for touring, off-road or work use, and existing accessories can affect the available space within the engine bay.

Potential items that may affect fitment include aftermarket electrical equipment, air-intake modifications, compressors, additional filtration equipment or other engine-bay accessories.

⚠️ IMPORTANT: Inspect the actual vehicle before installation if it has been modified from its original configuration.
