  I have been retired for 9 years In my career I have seen Batteries under 
the floor, under the seats , in the trunk and after about 1937 in the engine 
compartment.  Lead acid batteries start gassing and emit Hydrogen gas while 
charging after about 80% charge so must have vents.this is an explosive gas  (never 
get a spark or flame near a Battery) during 40 years maintaining and 
repairing battery's from motorcycle size up to 24 cell 4000 pound industrial fork lift 
battery size. Ihave studied   Lead acid and nickle/iron/alkaline Batteries 
continually during that time 
I suggest that you go to a library and get a  book on batteries to understand 
how they work and why.
