Either will be fine, choose the one with the best route to the back

I don't know why the Hiace has 2 batteries under the bonnet.

Ford used to offer the option and were mostly supplied on their Transit Chassis cab with rear wheel drive as most of those had tipper bodies attached. The 2nd battery was for the tipper motor.
