I wouldn't use it to relocat the battery. For mounting in the stock location, the tray I recieved from Turbojeff is excellent. But now my work (O'Reilly Auto Parts) can no longer get a 51R Optima. God that sucks.

It won't work well in the bin at all. It is designed for a bolt-in replacement using a 51R sized battery. The 51R is NOT a specialized battery, it is just a battery size. The 51R is a standard size for some Hondas, Mitsubishis, etc.

You don't have to use an Optima although that battery has the most capacity.

Alright guys it's on!

The trays were ordered today and shipping will being 4 wks from 10/31. I ship USPS priority mail, shipping anywhere in the country usually doesn't take more than 3-4 days. The vendor has been very good at meeting dates in the past in previous group buy threads. Once I order parts there won't be weeks of excuses why the parts are not done.

I sent a PM to those interested, if more are interested PM me please.

I will take paypal payments starting today @ jeff.hoskinson@psc.com. The price is $71/ea shipped in the 48 states.
