My last van had a step in battery box which battery sat on, the vertical wall of this step was drilled and tapped for 6mm bolt tapped insert .

There was a  lenght 100mm by 15x22 x2 mm angle drilled in 22mm side for 6mm bolt, above bolt hole was a piece of nat rubber sponge bonded to angle which compressed when angle was screwed up against battery.

 On front and back wall of battery box where two vertical strips of sponge to  cushion battery if slid fore or aft but never saw any evidence of this when clamped with angle plate and sponge, round headed bolt with screw driver slot.

 drop down door also had two strips of sponge which compressed against battery when closed beside the usual door seals
