    BATTERY COMPARTMENT TRAYS

    To keep your trays from moving and messing up the fiberglass, I cut some rubber strips off of an old inter tube and super glued it the bottom of the tray lips. Now they don't move ..

    Good idea. I took mine out long ago because they would slide back and forth.

    I have not seen this done on a Phoenix but it should work...the tray itself has a small lip. That lip sits on the lip of the fiberglass opening to the bilge. Position the tray where you want it. Take a small drill bit and drill through the tray and the fiberglass lip. Then push a nail down into the hole. A roofing nail or a nail with a big head is best so you can easily grab it when you need to remove it. My neighbor done this to his TR196 to keep his trays in place.

    I put some weather stripping under the lips. Its thick enough to stop the edges from rubbing the glass real bas also

    The tool trays, not battery mount trays. :-)

    I secured mine using the clear velcro material you get from craft store, keeps them from sliding and easy to remove

    I used the felt side of Velcro on my trays. Works perfect.

    I used cabinet door pads (little round pads with adhesive on one side and felt on the other) and they have worked well.
