weird question: where's the battery?

Or more specifically, where is my battery supposed to be located on my 82 300SD?

Okay, so it's in the right spot. I was wondering because on my w116, it's up closer to the grill, and there is a spot big enough for a battery to go there in the w126.


Dual battery time, maybe?

the space it there, but no real need for a second battery and all the issues THAT would bring.
