Thanks

That's the box I should have bought..

Here's what I bought and the lids too big...

Picked it up about $10 less locally. Not a good deal when it doesn't fit..

It looks like the price has come down a bit. I'll have to see what shipping would add to that price. It may be worthwhile.

Hoggone,

There are various illustrations to show proper battery hookup. Looking from the front, this is how mine is hooked up:

I bought two of these for our dual GC2s and they fit the factory battery rack just fine:
