Ended up speaking to a guy called Paul from this site,

http://lindenbatteries.co.uk/

Sound guy and very helpful, it seems either the Braille B14115 or Tomioka TR-B1100 will do the job and will fit our connections,

If you do order the Tomioka and look at the picture of it on there site you will see the connections wont be the same as what is on our cars, but it will come with the right connection,

I was told the both batteries were made in the same factory, I ordered the Tomioka TR-B1100 it costs slightly more but has a two year warrenty, both batteries have free next day delivery aswell,

Thanks for the link

Nearly bought some new drop links tonight, Im trying to behave till payday!

Im home next week, would be good to have a peak. Think Im trying to squeeze too much stuff in though (Mrs aint gonna be happy ) Only back for 10 days as dog cant travel back with us atm

Yeh you can have a ganda no worries, aslong as ive fitted it by then, been working away alot recently.

It should be an easy swap though its just the mounting that could be a pain.

I was told they should fit our fixings Mike,

@ Rob, where you getting your velcro from?, what way you thinking about mounting it?

Aaron,

Ive been using heavy duty (labeled as outdoor) self adhesive pads of velcro from Halfords for my front number plate ant it has been pretty hardcore.

The guys who wrapped my front bits had a mission to get it off, more than upto holding 5kilo battery in the boot imo

 

[RobH]

Tbh i havnt even had a look yet

Ill think of something though
