This approach will make battery swaps easier in tight locations.
If you will be mounting your battery in the trunk such that it is partially covered by the top of the quarter panel, then the top mount clamps can be a pain in the ass when changing out your battery. The quarter panel prevents you from lifting the battery up and out. And the bars that connect the base to the top clamp can get in the way as well.

I just went thru this on the red car which has a fuel pump controller located to the rear of the battery. That keeps me from sliding the battery rearward to remove it. The only solution is to remove the battery hold down from under the car and slide the whole assembly out, then take apart the top clamp. Very annoying!! This design would have saved a buch of time.

Too bad the car is back together and I already purchased another top clamp design for the blue car. One week too late.
