Default NewBattery IN!

k guys, i just got in my new hawker battery today and wanted to keep you guys updated on the weight diff btw that and my old one. my new battery weights exactly 14 lbs and not 13.5 as it says on the website but its ok. lol j/k. and my old one was in at flat 38 lbs. so i saved about 24 lbs. i think its worth it tho. i just got really excited when i saw it and when to put it on but it started to rain like a mo fo so i just got to connect it half *** and see if it works and it just starts up great. no diff. btw that and my old one. i'll post up some pics once i get this thing installed right and make sure its secure because it is like 1/4 of the old battery. lol

That's awesome. I am going to get a lighter battery too. I am already planning the move to the trunk.

I am trying to make it as light as possible closer to 50/50 weight distribution...without messing up the interior/function of the car.

Yes you can mount it any way you want... it's sealed. I believe it's the same battery that Mr. Heeltoe sells.

As long as you don't bump your **** while the car is off... you should be fine.

moving the battery or reducing its weight is a HUUUUGE benifit for Preludes & Accords.
We got that thing hung way out on the nose
