Anyone using a battery box to hide theirs?
I can't see spending $50 for a plastic plate to hide my battery when a battery box costs less than half that and actually does more than hide it.
The problem I have is they categorize them as "Series 27" or "Series 24-31" and such. I can't seem to find out what series our batteries are.

Can anyone help?

To clarify:
I am not looking to relocate the battery to the trunk (although) that might be an idea for later, especially If I decide to track it) I just want to contain/hide the ugly beast.

Something like this:


is what I was hoping to use. Then I can spray paint it or leave it black.

I don't have anything against the guys who make the battery/master cylinder covers I have seen. I just don't think $2 worth of molded plastic should cost $90+

i know this is a little old but do what i did if i you can afford it. just go get an optima Red or Yellow top theyre not an eye sore as much as the boring black batteries

Thanks for the input skoundrel, 60+ people read it but had no comment (surprising at this place).
The problem is, I really don't want to spend $100+ for this when I have a brand-new battery.
I can get a battery box and rattle-can it (I found a close match for vista blue metallic) if I can make it fit.
Was hoping SOMEONE had done this. Really surprised if no one has. I guess I will have to do some really precise measuring to see.
Spent today cleaning and shining for a visit to the folks for lunch tomorrow. Maybe after that, if it is still light (and warm enough).

I'm subscribed because I wanna see this plus since it appears nobody has done it possibly someone else is curious about it that couldn't find some thing either
