I just tend to find a battery that fits snuggly in the space (making it very hard for the battery to move, even did a few over crest jumps with no negative impact.. but that was in my is300, tie down still on the BRZ as I haven't had to change the battery yet, I'll keep it there but if it didn't fit I wouldn't be worried and just toss it)... that a bit more of what I meant as a Wee part
