Red top battery fitment

cedsks · January 21st, 2011, 07:57 AM

I know this has prob be answered here before but every time I try to search now on here the computer just hangs or says fail....

Anyway, anyone out there with a red top optima, which one fits in the stock location? Also anyone out there that has one that fits and has both top and side posts, the model or identify number would be great and worth some reps...

You need to get a 34/78 battery. I would recommend getting the Yellow Top Optima Battery D34/78 (8014-045) over the Red Top Battery 34/78 (8004-003). It's a little more pricey since it's a dual purpose application. They will be a tad larger but it will fit in the stock location.

Group 34/78 is the top/side posts.
