Post Dual battery system/kit for 4dr RHD (Right Hand Drive)
I am considering to install a dual battery system in my JK 4dr RHD (Right Hand Drive), the battery is basically on the right hand side (from open bonnet view) indeed on the other side from the LHD. Any one installed a dual battery in a RHD? looking carefully I don't think it is a problem but some pictures of the installation would be appreciated (or links)

You could always move your battery/batteries to the back. The reduction in heat (from moving them out of the hot engine compartment) will make them last longer. Just make sure you go with sealed batteries if you do this.

Many thanks, indeed I am in a hot country so batteries will have a significant reduced lifespan?
