You would need to make some custom securing brackets, since there is no way to anchor it down with the oem brackets...

I got my Optima red top delivered yesterday and it incurred a little damage on the corner before it got to me. It looks like there is a bit of insulation (styrofoam?) that is now exposed. I could care less about the cosmetics, but I was just looking for some confirmation that this won't affect the performance of the battery (i.e., leak). Any input would be appreciated.
Thanks,

^^^^See my Post No. 21 on the previous page of this thread:
It's a Group 24 size. The difference is the polarity is reversed. DON'T get a Group 24F.

Nope, Not in December, TODAY!!!!! My wife's battery failed yesterday and our cars were bought together so I replaced both batteries at the same time. I got Bosh Premium Power, They were rated pretty good in Consumer Reports. A Group 24 for me and a Group 24F for her.
Why Lexus chose batteries for the ES and the IS that are exactly the same size and capacity but have different polarity is beyond me![Uhh...](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/smilies/1387914497.gif)

So I've owned my car for almost 5 years now amd I've been through 3 Lexus batteries in that time. I went to start the car today and its completely dead. I guess it's time to stop being cheap and actually go buy a battery. Has this happened to anyone else? Any recommendations for a new one?
