if i remember right there is already one bolt hole on the boot. thn drilled another.  Make sure that there is nothing underneath.  I just bolted the new battery box, discarded the old tray.

I\'ve got a PC680 battery in my FD.

Purchased it from http://www.knightbatteries.com/

Good service.

Battery starts the car with no problems. Will quite happily turn the engine over for 20 seconds or so. Mine always starts after about 2 or 3 secs.

I dont use my car on a daily basis, once a week if that and so the battery goes flat over a period of 2 weeks or so due to my alarm system. Due to this I also have a portable power pack to help out when its been standing for long periods

Cool,

Mine arrived next day.

When I got it I thaught this thing is way too small no way its got enough umph to turn the car over but it works like a charm.  Its 3 times smaller than the varta battery that was in there before.

Glad I could help.
