I think the battery tray is also partly the engine mount. I've removed mine but im not using the mount any more.

O ok I will have to look in to it will check my car in the morning thanks tho

It is a L shape off the chassis leg (mount clamps between the 2) and the battery tray goes over it as a support. You could remove it and reinforce it afterward though nothing stopping you if you're handy with a welder

Battery tray removed and plate welded on top.

Looking at it you have to weld the plate over then paint the bay ya

Yep. Not the easiest to cut off without cutting too deep!

Looks neat and tidy if the plate is welded neatly.
