Pretty sure that's a sealed AGM battery that doesn't need venting.

Default Venting aux battery

I ran a standard lead acid battery in the left side. I got the plastic fittings that fit in the side, and a rubber hose from the auto parts stste and ran the hose out the front of the box, then down past the plastic splash shield. Never had a problem for the 3 years it was in.

Soooo, my big plans to use an aftermarket mesh grill didn't quite work out. I did a bumper/winch/light bar install for a customer.

the vent sections on the aftermarket grill are longer than OEM so it's not as slick. Check the pics. Also this is the first TP4X4 bumper installed in the US!

I've been eyeballing that same grill myself. Was it plug and play? How close is the gray to bonatti?

It's plug and play. I put it on my friends Bonnati grey 3 and it matched. I'm tempted to say perfectly but some people are more picky than others.

Like I said... I actually like the stock bumper with hidden winch mount.
