Opinions about battery covers

Any opinions about protecting the battery from moisture with a battery cover? Recommendation on type or brand?

If you use a sealed battery, I don't think you really need one.

In my race car and also my daughter''s 2L we used a box/cover from a boat and that worked great.

Are we talking "moisture" or "rain" Sealed battery is best for any 914 application with the exception of 100% concours weenie.
