SupraJames Posted May 2, 2007 Share Posted May 2, 2007 Just wondering if anyone knew the model number for the Optima Yellow Top battery to fit a UK Spec..? Have used search but cant find the model number for the battery, found bits on J-Spec terminals but of course I dont need them. If anyone could help would be cool, just been offered a battery and want to make sure it fits. Thanks James Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gamer Posted May 3, 2007 Share Posted May 3, 2007 I do but it is mounted in the boot so the terminal leads are a bit different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rovervi Posted May 3, 2007 Share Posted May 3, 2007 why are these batteries so expensive? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SupraJames Posted May 3, 2007 Author Share Posted May 3, 2007 They are expensive for lots of reasons, they are dry cell so can be mounted anyway you like, I have gone for the Yellow Top due to it being a Deep Cycle battery and I will be running A LOT of ICE so it wont kill it in a hurry. They are just a very advanced and well respected battery across the whole tuning industry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MLC Posted May 3, 2007 Share Posted May 3, 2007 It was a stretch but managed to fit a D34 a few weeks back. Had to re-route the positive a little because of the intercooler washer bottle but only a minor problem. Any 4.2L yellow top should drop right in fine normally.
