Default Trickle charge

Hi,
Bit of a strange question.
Does anyone know which battery (under bonnet or in boot) I should use to put the car on trickle charge for a few months?
Car is V90 D4
Thanks

I think you should connect a charger only to the charging point under the bonnet.
Does your car need charging anyway?

The ONLY place to connect a charger, as per the handbook, is on the posts under bonnet.
The positive is under a red lift up cover, and the negative just in front of the LH suspension top. That is for my V60, although I suspect the V90 is similar.

As above, only use there under bonnet connection points, with a AGM smart charger.
