I have an arb style dual tray. relatively easy to fit, carries two of the standard sized batteries. If you were keen go in and have a look at one then decide if you could fabricate one yourself, they're pretty simple in design but a bit exxy. It's just a matter whether your time or your money is worth more to you

the arb tray is good but needs an extra mount in the middle of te 2 batteries to the side gaurd.

I would not recomend pirana trays, every vehicle I have worked on that has had a pirana tray has had stress cracks through the panels from the battery tray flexing.

will always be cheaper to have one made. even if you get someone you know to fab one up, cheap as chips
