battery tray for aftermarket ac

I need a new battery tray for my build. I don't have AC but if I add aftermarket AC does the tray style matter? I see there is a AC and non-AC version.

You said "With a little ingenuity I'm sure something can be manufactured" so I thought you were saying get the non-AC version and fab something if I need to.

IF you are going to buy and install AC in the future then buy the AC tray.
