I didn't realize it until a week later when I went and got a new battery from another store because Interstate is retarded. They told me they would have it in within a week, prolly NBD. I got a call from them about 6 weeks later letting me know that my battery was finally in.

And my terminals definitely don't look like yours Haunter, I just have a straight vertical plate with a hole in it. :(

T,
Not a problem as I said some thick alloy 1/8 - 1/10 thick bent at right angles (use heat ) will do the trick for yo to get the leads flat and out the way, just be sure that the lead leg is long enough so that the nuts & bolts on the battery do not clash with the lead bolts Nerd

Yeah, I'll look at that this weekend too. I wish I had a welder to set some nuts into the brackets to attach the cable. I can get it done, just a bit of a ride.
