075 battery with reverse terminals

Post by bigladwigan »

Hi, I'm really struggling to find a new battery for the van that has reverse terminal layout. Does anyone have a good supplier I can go to?

Thanks in advance for your help

There isn't an equivalent 075 with reverse terminals. Reverse terminals are not a popular fitment very few (mainly Italian vehicles) had them and they are more expensive. Why do you need one?

I was told it would give me more room to slide the driver seat back.

An 069 has the terminals the other way round.(+ on the left with terminals closest to you) not sure of the exact measurements ut its close to an 075,
hope this helps.

069 is too tall and has the wrong hold down fittings.
If the battery is not more than 175mm high then it should not effect the seat.
