Hi all,
My battery has completely failed, smelling of raw eggs and smoking, not good!
So I have removed it and got a new battery which fits perfect, however the batteries poles are too big![Ponder2](https://www.scoobynet.com/images/smilies/ponder2.gif)
Cannot connect the battery leads, it seems that JDM batteries have smaller poles.
Anyone know of a good battery with the smaller poles for a JDM STi Hawkeye??
Thanks

You can also go the cheaper option and use a Nissan micra battery has the same pole size as the spec-c and its the same size as the spec-c lightweight jobby.I put one on mine last week works perfecty about £43.

Nope, uk car.
Like I said, you just have to look for the battery code then you can get the battery![Wink](https://www.scoobynet.com/images/smilies/wink.gif)

As Joey says the Nissan Micra battery comes with an oversized push on lead ringlett you just pull them off and your + and - leads off the JDM fit perfectly.
