Is this the exact one you bought bud? Whats the fitment like? Battery post positions, clamp etc. I'm looking at changing my halfords battery as it sucks balls.

 

Yeah it is, it's a great battery that fits perfect in the boot, only issue I have is where it's located it sticks up so the carpet isn't flat. I'm going to be relocating to where the rear seats used to be.

 

I can grab some pics at the weekend for you if you want?

I got the Red Top from Tanya about a year ago

Get one with a handle , they are heavy , approx 20Kg

 

Halfords are doing Yuasa Batteries now

 

Whats the fit like? Have you got it in the standard location? 20kg is a decent weight !

I may have a look at the Yuasa batteries, i have a halfrauds trade card so would probably get a decent deal.

Ah, i didn't realise you'd located it in the boot, i was under the impression it was in under the bonnet :) Mine is still in the standard spot, i appreciate the offer of the pics though buddy :thumbs:
