Good point. I bought some plastic sheets with good insulating properties and installed them on the "ceiling" if each battery box. This insures that the terminals do not come in contact with the metal. The Miata battery is not quite as deep as the stock battery so i have a plastic spacer behind each battery to keep the terminals in the original position.
