Battery Compartment cabling

[watsonjones]

I have several questions for the group regarding the forward battery compartment.
I recently purchased the Victron BMV-712 battery monitor and want to install it. I have seen pictures of people that mount electrical components like this, including the bus bar that comes with it, and other solar install related items on a neat vertical wall mount behind the battery.
Can anyone give an amateur some guidance on how to go about installing one of these panels?
1. Should it be made from any specific type of material, or will any old plywood do, or do I just screw the parts to the existing bulkhead?
2. What depth screws can I use to mount the panel to the wall? It looks like the existing bulkhead is about a 1/2” wood board.
3. Any other issues/items that I might not have considered?
Any advice and especially pictures from anyone that has done something like this on their Monty would be appreciated.
I have attached a picture of my existing bulkhead and an example of what I am looking to duplicate (but with currently far less items on it).
Thank you
