[Healeys] Battery Cable Routing for BT7

[Harold Manifold]

Chassis number is 13100. It didn't come with the grommet with the 3 holes
but I was thinking it would be a good idea to add it.

Yes Lin, you are correct  ... I  see that the grommet with the retaining
plate started at (C) 15862 so it was well into the Mk II. 
You learn something every day.

Harold and Michael, 
That grommet with retaining plates was not on my BT7 - 4422. I added it
because it makes good sense. But it was not original to my car. I did not
have the three holes for mounting screws.

Is that a replacement panel behind the axle? 
I ask because I believe that there should be 3 holes for the grommet
retaining plate screws in addition to the large one that the cable passes
through. 
The same grommet with retaining plate arrangement is used where the -ve
cable passes through the battery housing panel.

Hello,
 
When I purchased my barn find Healey the battery cable from the boot to
under the chassis was missing. I need some help with routing between the
boot bulkhead and the bulkhead under the rear seats. I have seen pictures
online of the cable above the axle and below the axle, which one is correct?
Above the axle seems to make the most sense. Also there are two 3/4" holes
in the boot bulkhead. I assume the cable goes through the upper hole. What
is the other hole used for?
 
I have loosely laid the cable in place in the attached picture. As always
any help from this forum is appreciated.
