Default Wanting to install 2 yellow tops in 2013 Eco is there room?

Just wondering if any one has 2 full size batteries under the hood of their Eco? If so pics and how did you do it.
I want to install the 2 yellow tops I got in my 2013 but it done look like there is room.

I can't help with how to fit 2 under the hood, but I would suggest alternatives, depending what you need/want the 2nd battery for.
Stereo, why not under bed, closer to where amp would be, shorter cable run.
Winch, just grab a big dry cell, deep cycle, like an Odysee (spelling?) which should be plenty for occasional winch use.

What do you want the battery to do? Start,stereo,winch... just in case?

I would think you could mount one under the truck in a box along the frame rail.

Yeah I want it for stereo system. But it looks like the room under the hood is going to be a problem. I will probably trade it for a sealed stereo battery and put it in the cab.

I was going to leave my opinion out of it, but do agree,

I am rocking an XS power battery right now.
