This question is for your guys that have the battery toppers. Do you, or did you get the post extenders? Do you need the post extenders? I am about to get a topper and was wondering about those extenders if I would need them.

Also, do the toppers fit all batteries? I read the archives and saw that they fit Diehards does anybody know the other batteries. I have a Federated now.

Please let me know.

Bird,
here is a link to the toppers that will show them.

basically, they are tops that fit over existing batteries to resemble in appearance the R-59 batteries. This lets you use the newer and better deisgns than the old ones. Supposedly, the repop R-59's are not good and are overpriced, according to other guys on this site that used the R-59's. I don't know for sure, this is what I read here.

Hope this helps.

I remember quite a long discussion on them over at the CRG forums. I think it was in the old forums so now it would be in the archives. http://www.camaros.org

Let me know if you have a hard time finding them.

This is the only post on the toppers I found in their new forums:

There are about 12 posts that came up on a search through their old forum archive for topper, r59, r-59
