Mine is not fitted but if you want a pic yell out?

Heres pic of the start battery cover there is also
a small piece of pipe to vent off into the guard

Here's my basic heat shield. I used the stuff from supercheap. Folded it and secured it to the battery tray. Used some rubber fuel hose to top it off. http://www.nissanpatrol.com.au/forum...016/09/178.jpghttp://www.nissanpatrol.com.au/forum...016/09/179.jpg
