Nothing special is needed to put that battery in your car unless it is the model without the side-post terminals. Sometimes Optimas are a pain to mount however.

My yellow tops have both top and side mount terminals. I used stinger side taps , 5.00 each and for the top i used stinger post terminals for the top to connect the 2 together . The top terminal connector will be from 15-30. each depending on style and brand. Go with side mount stud taps if you want to go the cheapest route . You can always add a top terminal for your sterio wire later. pick up some 4 guage ring terminals to connect your primary wire for the sterio to the battery . Crimp on are cheapest but reusable ones are better . They have a screw to hold the wire in. They run about 5.00 each . You will need at least 2 4 guage . 1 for power and 1 for ground . Having a couple extra never hurts .

Ahhhhhh just set the battery in. When I first measured, it looked like it was going to be about 1/2inch short...but it slid right in woohoo.... I am only dropping about 1 volt instead of 2 now....just hope my dads meter was right
