I'd say u have an easy enough task. Disconnect the neg batt terminal. . An disassemble the area where the rattle is coming from... ex.. drivers rear.. pull b an c pillar roof handle rear mirror etc... to access the specific point where u hear the rattle. . Then tighten it down.. an reassemble. .
I've done the headliner on my old Honda back in the days, so hopefully this one isn't too "over-engineered"
. Let me tell ya, I learned firsthand of Lexus' engineering when I encountered, and fought against, the rear reclining seats of the LS460 w/Comfort Plus package hahaBTW, that second battery setup is awesome!

Thanks... alot of late nights in my future.. was at the shop til 1130 last night..so more updates soon
Thanks bud.. you should stop by and check out the progress..(no cell phone zone for the next few weeks..lmao)
i wasnt willing to lose any more trunk room.. (available space left is comparable to the hybrid's now) so less than that would be hard to deal with on road trips.. i actually got the idea the last time i swapped my hid fog bulbs.. i saw a ton of empty space an hoped a batt would fit... turns out theres plenty behind the bumper...

sideways is no problem at all..
we install upside down batts (sideways too for that matter) under truck beds all the time..i think we're going for some kind of record.. the most i've put in under a truck is 12 (and thats mixed upside down and sideways depending on space...
UNCLE JITTY>>>>>> I FINALLY got back on my grind (big things on the horizon) here's a taste of a 1 of the comin upgrades
