[urq] Perhaps no space for that battery remover.

The battery is flush with the hole on the forward portion, in the rear portion 
the battery holddown limits movement.  


BTW - isn't this area where people add the fuel pump relay?   I'm not sure if my 
car has that.   The yellow wires were probably for some removed sound amps, I 
bought my urq from a college kid.

A volvo 850 battery seems to fit nicely in the urq and I just noticed today that 
battery seems to have a plug where maybe gasses can be hooked up to the urq vent 
hose.

I gave up on removing the urq battery a year ago as part of rust proofing  
effort, but now I might want to move it in a CGT.  Perhaps I need to purchase a  
battery carrying strap to get it out.  It would tug on the battery posts.    I'm 
not sure if urls are allowed so here is the back half  
grainger.com/Grainger/WESTWARD-Battery-Carrying-Strap-1EFY7?Pid=search  to show 
what a battery carrying strap is.  Any other tips on removing the battery from 
the hole?   I guess next time I'll  lie some rope or straps in hole first.     
With the handle on the original battery it wouldn't tuck down low enough.
