battery box worn out
My original battery box has been fiberglass repaired multiple times. Is warped, cracked, shabby, leaky. Looking for a replacement or alternative. Any ideas besides continuing to fiberglass up the 50 yr old disintegrating plastic box? I am seeing these Bogert stainless battery boxes for 182's etc. Sure would be nice. A good sealing box with a tight vent would be nice to control local corrosion which is trying to involve the firewall.

Aviation Enterprises had PMA'd boxes that were pretty nice. I don't see them on their website but you might call them direct http://www.cessnaskymaster.com/

Herb. Thanks for that insight. I know when I bought the battery box I thought the lid came with it-NOT! So that is why I have an extra. ALSO I'D LIKE TO PAT MYSELF ON THE BACK and let the SOAPA family know you have a newly minted Skymaster RATED pilot-me. Yep finally passed my checkride the past weekend!
Regards, BILLS

Been busy for a couple days. Appreciate the responses. Called Bogert and they DO make a very good looking battery box. No STC though. Will have to get field approval. Someone is already flying around with a field approved model. I will be talking to my IA. They will send pictures if interested and seem ready to assist with the process.
