Incase someone wants to mount a light weight dry cell battery in the original factory battery location. This will let an easy switch back to factory battery if need be. I did this mod last winter and I know a few other guys did something similar. You can lay the dry cell battery down and do the same thing, your choice.

Advanced Auto plastic adjustable battery hold down clamp ($6.99) and modifiy factory plastic tray by drilling 2 holes and finding/buying hardware at sears/homedepot ($2-$3) to complete simple cheap mod.

The battery is just in place for the pic, the positive side would go towards the driver when installing. So the battery is not positioned the right way, just wanted to have the label in pic.
