Optima Battery Cover (pics)
Finally got my Optima Battery cover in the mail today.. Here are a few pics so you can see if you'd want to get one...
A few pics of the cover alone:
Here is a pic of the naked battery:
And here it is with the cover installed. Looks much cleaner..

It doesn't look much better than the top of the battery to me. Now if you send it to AutoBuffs, I think you'd have something special.

Where did you get the cover?
The Battery is held down by a puck at the bottom, so no strap is required.
The cover is cosmetic only... It just covers the unused top terminals.
Good luck,

I like that cover along with the price. I have the yellow top but prefer the red color. Maybe I will see if I can get a cover also...Thanks for the pointer and post...

Re: Optima Battery Cover (ambitin)
Won't that cover prevent the battery from breathing properly?

Sealed batteries don't breathe.
