Rennline Battery Bracket Help

[whiterabbit]

So I installed the Odyssey 925 battery today with the Rennline mount but IMHO the positive terminal looks awfully close to the inner fender. Am I worried for no reason or have others had the same concerns? There seems to be no other way to mount the battery without going the route of longer cables. I have also done a long search and cannot find a photo of this battery mounted in a 1984-89 Carrera yet lots of threads where people recommend this.

Thanks for any suggestions. Right now my thoughts are to try and cover the positive terminal in some way.

How about photo of your installation?

Here is a photo of how close it is, about half an inch or so:

Looks similar to mine, which has been that way for a bit over 4 years now. If the battery is solidly mounted, shouldn't be an issue.

Arne,

Thanks for the photo that makes me feel a lot better. I will cover my positive terminal like yours and stick a small piece of rubber or similar on the inner fender to be sure.

Update I found some window foam at Lowes and stuck it on the inner fender for extra protection. It will be hidden by the carpet and gives a bit more piece of mind. Also will add a wider washer to the front hold down allen bolt.

My terminals are on the inboard side.
Would that be possible with the reversed terminals
