If you get a spark from the speaker and hydrogen evolved from the battery while charging - POP could cause some problems. What if somebody sits on the seat and the speaker is pushed down and contacts the battery posts causing a major short?

What type of car is it?

How would a speaker make a spark? Ive never seen or heard of this before
The speaker will be in the board infront of the battery on a 71 superbug so it wont contact the terminals
