What This Part Does
Supports the battery
The tray provides a solid, correctly shaped platform beneath the battery so that the battery sits level and in its intended engine-bay position.
Controls movement
Together with the vehicle's battery clamp and retaining hardware, it helps prevent the battery from sliding, leaning, lifting or striking nearby parts.
Protects surrounding systems
Correct positioning reduces avoidable tension on battery cables and helps maintain clearance from hoses, wiring, bodywork and other engine-bay components.
Maintains factory layout
A matching moulded tray restores the intended mounting footprint, cable-routing positions and attachment points instead of relying on an improvised universal base.
Possible Signs Your Tray Needs Replacing
- Battery moves, rocks or rattles when checked by hand.
- Battery does not sit level or the hold-down clamp cannot tighten correctly.
- Tray is cracked, split, distorted or has broken mounting points.
- Knocking or clattering can be heard from the battery area over bumps.
- Battery cables appear stretched, trapped or able to rub against surrounding parts.
- Mounting bolts no longer hold securely because the tray fixing points are damaged.
- Corrosion, impact damage or previous poor installation has weakened the support.
- The current tray has the wrong shape or dimensions for the fitted battery.
Vehicle Reference Photographs
The photographs below illustrate two documented vehicle families associated with part number 50518764. They are vehicle references only and are not the cars being sold. Body style alone does not confirm the tray: compare the exact part number and layout.
Reference images are public-domain/CC0 vehicle illustrations. Vehicle colour, trim, wheels and registration year do not determine battery-tray compatibility.
Part-Number Compatibility Chart
| Make & Model | Platform | Model-Family Years | Body Style | Fitment Requirement |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Fiat Grande Punto | Type 199 | 2005–2012 Some market registrations may extend later. |
3-door and 5-door | Existing large tray must show 50518764 and matching mounts. |
| Fiat Punto Evo | Type 199 | 2009–2012 | 3-door and 5-door | Confirm 50518764; do not select by 1.2/1.3/1.4 engine size alone. |
| Fiat Punto | Type 199, post-Evo model | 2012–2018 | 3-door and 5-door | Match number, tray dimensions, battery arrangement and fixing points. |
| Alfa Romeo MiTo | Type 955 | 2008–2018 | 3-door | Documented exact-number application; physical comparison remains essential. |
Documented engine examples
Exact-number market references exist across examples including 1.2 petrol, 1.4 petrol, 0.9 TwinAir and 1.3 MultiJet applications. This does not mean every version of those engines uses this tray. Battery size, stop/start equipment and production specification can alter the fitted assembly.
What It Must Not Be Ordered For
- A vehicle whose original tray carries a number other than 50518764, unless an authoritative parts check confirms replacement or interchange.
- The smaller battery-tray version used on some Punto-family specifications.
- A Fiat Punto Type 188 or earlier-generation Punto based only on the Punto name.
- A vehicle outside the Fiat Type 199 or Alfa Romeo MiTo Type 955 families without an exact-number confirmation.
- A vehicle with different bolt positions, side-wall shape, cable clips or battery dimensions.
- A vehicle selected only through registration year, engine capacity, fuel type or visual similarity.
Five-Point Buyer Matching Checklist
Clean the moulded area and confirm it reads 50518764.
Check the high side walls, battery footprint, open areas and raised sections.
Count the bolt holes and confirm their location against the underside photograph.
Confirm the fitted battery size, terminal orientation, cable route and surrounding clearance.
Send your registration, VIN, original number and clear photographs through eBay Messages. A check can reduce delays and unnecessary returns.
Where the Part Is Fitted
Open the bonnet and locate the 12V battery. The tray forms the platform directly underneath the battery and attaches to the vehicle body structure.

Why Choose a Matching Factory-Fit Part?
Correct moulded geometry
A matching 50518764 tray is designed around the intended battery footprint, retaining arrangement, bolt pattern and surrounding engine-bay clearances.
Avoid universal compromises
A cheap universal substitute may require drilling, packing, improvised brackets or cable repositioning and may not retain the battery correctly.
Better value than unnecessary new replacement
A serviceable pre-owned factory-fit component can provide a substantial saving compared with purchasing a new assembly while restoring the correct layout.

Supporting a Local Parts Business ♻️
Purchasing a serviceable pre-owned vehicle component supports a specialist local business, helps keep skilled automotive knowledge in the community and gives an existing part another useful working life.
Reusing suitable components can reduce demand for new raw materials, manufacturing, long-distance supply chains and premature disposal. It is a practical way to repair a vehicle responsibly while potentially saving money compared with buying new.
