Another FYI...
When I had corrosion problems with my factory battery, I researched online here and other forums got a little confused about what battery to get. I did my own measurements and decided on thee Optima Battery, the 34R Red Top. There is no 34R for the yellow top. The size of the 34/34R battery is perfect.
Some people mention grinding or whatever to the battery holder. If you use the 34R there is no grinding whatsoever. Measure for yourself. 51/51R is too tall!! I used a flathead screwdriver to move the lip over so battery could fit all the way... I mean a totally snug fit.
I also replaced the cable terminals with normal ones from Autozone... much sturdier if you ask me. Mine were corroded and broke off when I tried to clean them.
