I'm looking for some kind of custom idea for a new battery tray for my protege5, I got a sick deal on a red top but it's a bit small for the factory tie down to bite down on the battery. So I'm looking for a new custom idea I can try to tie down the battery. I'll keep searching for ideas but looking for an idea from the protege community. Thanks in advance!

Cheers!

there are all kinds of billet holders for the optima, some are blanks others have designs. I've have a blank billet version for years holding down my redtop.

FYI, Optima has a spacer that allows the battery to work with the factory tie-down. Call them and they'll send you one.
