T-Works have introduced an adjustable battery holder set for the Xray T4 touring cars. The set consists of machined L-shaped carbon fibre battery locators as well as brass and aluminium stoppers that incorporate a lash to route battery tape above the chassis, rather than having to run it underneath the main plate.
