Battery Tie Down

So I want to spruce up my engine bay a little, and was thinking about getting a battery tie down because my oem one is cracking. I tried a search on ebay and this is what i came up with.
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/92-01...spagenameZWDVW
Will this fit? Also I know blackack got one a while ago from excelerate, but i think hes sold out now, so any other advice as to where to get one?

Yeah I got the only one he had left. All you need is for it to be offset like that one is. You can't get a straight one. That's the only thing to worry about. Most things say offset/honda if they apply to us

gravity keeps yo shit settled, huh?

that's pretty sweet. I never thought about that. I also found an oil cap/radiotor cap combo on ebay. Should be easy to find. All that stuff adds character, I think

i think optima is overrated, i bought an autozone yellow top with 200 more cold crank and crank amps than an optima yellow with a 8 yr warranty for $35 cheaper.

I got a Red Top too, but really wanted a Yellow Top, which was sold out everywhere around here....

Maybe I'll just stick with the Red
