I tried that storage space on my Cougar's front compartment. It's a "perfect space for batteries" as far as the actual location. That said, in my trailer, there's a 7" lip along the bottom of the door framework. That lip means that in orger to get the batteries out of the storage compartment, I had to lean into the compartment while bent over in a awkward position and lift the batteries with my forearms, since I couldn't use my back or my upper arms because of the awkward position caused by the trailer's front overhang. I devised a winch/pulley "contraption" to get the batteries out of the compartment. I'm no "90 pound weakling" but for the life of me, I couldn't find the strength to lean into the compartment, lift the batteries clear of that lip to get them out.
You might want to take a look at not only "will they store there easily" (which they will) but also at "how do I get them out of the compartment, given the way it's built".... Yours may be different, but you may have the same problems. It's worth a look.....
