+Originally, the charger was directly bolted to the car chassis. Since it turned out to be quite noisy, I later suspended it in rubber mounts to reduce the noise radiated from the car's floor to the outside.
+DIY rubber mount: The mounting hole of the charger is drilled out and the inner tube is inserted. The two rings of outer tube are then placed the inner tube, on top and beneath the charger's mounting plate. A bolt with a large washer is inserted into the inner tube, and presses the whole mount to the chassis.

 In order to protect the charger's ventilation holes from the ECE R-100 test wire, I built a cage made of expanded metal mesh.
