Yessirre. Closes and clips tight as it should .
Cool. My brake reservoir lives on the battery lid.
I though that was only a temporary relocation while you were enlarging the hole? Can’t you put the reservoir back its original location or do you play with your setting often or is it simply in the way of the BCs?Cool. My brake reservoir lives on the battery lid.
It's in my BC install thread, linked in the "how to" section.I remember reading that mod. How's it working for ya? (and a link for the newbies maybe?)
Every time I go for an alignment (often lately) I have to put it back on the battery lid so the tech can access the camber plate easily. It doesn't seem to affect braking performance at all, so I mostly just leave it there.I though that was only a temporary relocation while you were enlarging the hole?

Had a no start incident and though it might be battery. Symptoms indicate electrical (starter does not turn) and the battery is 4 yrs, 8 mon old so I figure it wouldn't hurt to test out Costco's warranty program. No questions ask and after 56 months, still got 50% back.Installed Costco Kirkland Group 34 battery. $85-9(core)+6%tax = that's cheap
1000 CA
800 CCA
105 RC
3 year replacement and I think 5 years prorated (didn't look at that).
Here's a little interesting bit I read on the "web". Typically the RC can tell how "good" (long lasting) a battery can be as it dictates cell quality or arrangement. Higher CCA is nice but can also decrease life.
FWIW, Kirkland group 35 is $80 ($5 less).
