Skittles80 Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 13 months ago I fitted a banner battery which was nothing but trouble the supplier tested it and said there was no problem with it been through the whole car fixed a couple of electrical issues it has now come to the point where the battery won't take a charge and I have lost the receipt every where I ring for a flat terminal battery try's to sell me a banner battery and I don't want another one of those so does any one know where I can get a decent make flat terminal battery ie like a Bosch I can't convert to round terminals as it has a electric box of tricks which bolts up with the terminal she is a 1.6 zetec mk 5 and the live for the roof also goes through the terminal thanx mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gingergman Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 Got mine off eBay from uni part, there is a uni part local to me but they wanted about 60 quid so I ordered off there eBay store and got it delivered for about 40 quid. Worth a try to see if there's one near you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allblue Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 Hi I use a round post battery on my MK6 Escort. I got around the ancillary fusebox fitting by inverting the plate and it works sound with the round post converters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
