I have an optima red top and it fits fine but is not held down firmly by
the stock bracket.  New Dimensions used to have a custom A2 bracket for
the optima battery but this was long ago.  Apparently it is not too
difficult to fabricate if you are inclined to fabrication.

Subject: [a2-16v-list] A2 Batteries- Group 41: Other sizes that will
fit?

What other size batteries will fit our cars?  Our size is Group 41, and
I have searched around and found that the mid-90's 3 series BMW guys are
using Group 48's in place of the original Group 41.

Has anyone bought a battery recently, and have any insight?  I am
tempted to get a battery from a place like PepBoys or Autozone (full 2
yr warranty, 84 mth prorated), for only $50 or $60.

Thanks in advance,
