This is historically a bad idea. There should be NO exposed PCB assemblies,
and who wants to attach one to each and every cell like Mini BMS? One again,
bad idea.

John,
Do you have a wiring diagram?

I really dislike the idea of high voltage BMS wires running all over the place.
My plan, if I use LEAF cells, is to make a PCB that attaches directly to the
battery terminals that has a microcontroller reading the cell voltages and
sending the data via an optically isolated serial bus that is daisy
ution, or copying of any part of

Only if you keep the Leaf modules intact. Most conversions will need
the modules disassembled in order to install modules to specific areas
available.
Wires to the cells for the BMS will have to be cut and spliced for the BMS
connection with HV wires of small gauge running all over the conversion.
Re-using the Leaf's BMS wiring avoids the drawback of no additional bms plug.
That is what I have done.

I have done many conversions using the Focus, as well as Leaf, Volt and Bosch
(13,16,Fiat500e)
My favorite is the Volt since the module is 48vdc and a socket for the BMS.
Focus is good also as it comes in a 16vdc module.
Bosch seems to be the highest quality and comes in 48vdc modules with BMS
plu
I've been planning on using one or more LEAF batteries in my conversion project.
In searching salvage yard listings (car-part.com), I'm seeing a lot of Ford
Focus EV batteries for similar prices to the LEAF, but they are generally newer
batteries.
Has anyone here used cells from a Focus? The built
