    BMW e30 battery/batteries

    Hey guys I recently bought an e30 and it has a battery tray in the back and then some more positive and negative battery cables inside the engine bay. Which battery do I need to install? Do I need both? Can I just use the engine one?

    You can use the one in the front. The rear battery tray was used for weight distribution purposes. You could run the cable if you wanted, but that's entirely optional.
