Default Oddessey battery installed

Looks pretty nice so figured it was worth a post.

Got the same battery in my civic but I think I am gonna get this same bracket for it now.

You pump it up with a air compressor to a full sized tire. Pretty common in most german cars I think.

HAHA good thing I didn't zoom out anymore. I would have about 20 questions about my headlights and 20 more about the fuel cell.

nah it's very close but they aren't touching. I know I could have mounted it over and it would have even looked cleaner. But dam it I wanted it as low and as close to the center as possible

I made my life easier and put aligator clips on the pump. So I can connect directly to the battery. I should pump up the spare though and make sure it's still good. Don't know if it's ever been used.
