If you used that version, you would not have needed to make adaptor/extension cables, and it would have been a drop-in fit.

Sorry for the thread necro, but it looks like these LFX36L3-BS12 batteries are still highly praised on Amazon. I'm thinking about taking the plunge. Can someone please confirm my supporting parts list?

*Brass terminals (from the OP of this thread)
*Tie down adapter or new tie down (could DIY, but if there's a proven COTS solution I'd appreciate a pointer to it)
*Shorai tender (not sure I need this for Bay Area Cali, drive every day and expected temps are between 30-100 F, plus I have a backup car).
*Voltage monitor? (again, if I drive everyday, maybe I don't really need it?)

Thanks in advance!
