While the topic is up, any reason to buy the battery buckets as opposed to finding a plastic trash can that's the right size? Seems like 25-30 bucks for a plastic basket is crazy. Are these impervious to battery acid?
I went to wallymart with my tape measure found the housewares section and bought a plastic storage bin (the heavier weight, not the food storage type).
I think I paid all of $2 for it. It needed a bit of persuasion to get it in there, but it's a nice fit. Failing that, you could cut one apart and just poprivet the pieces to the frame. I keep some oil and brake fluid in it, and some hoses/parts that I'm sure I'll never need. Do a search for photos...
I've switched to a single 12V AGM-type and could not be happier.
