I hear differing opinions of the placement of the battery. Traditionally it seems to be a front mount. But, some have moved it to the trunk? From my preliminary research, the trunk seems more practical?

What are the pros and cons?

Mine are in the traditional location behind the passenger seat. They are a pair of 6v connected together to provide 12v. As you can see, I also located my battery cut-off switch there. These are Red-Tops. Originals had batteries called "Rebat" in same configuration and there are folks making replicas of the Rebats with modern technology for the true purist. See? It just goes on and on!
