I have a battery cover/lid for my 260, however it does not seem to fit correctly, does anyone know how to fit it, or is it a case that it does not fit after market batteries? Any photos of the original fitment would be a bonus.
Thanks

My late (Jan 2005) R75V8 looks much the same with only a "mini-cover" over the positive pole. Guess that came as part of the Bosch battery anyway, not the car. Don't believe any ZT 260's/R75V8's have a large cover that like fitted on to the battery-box in a V6?

Thanks for responses, must be an aftermarket, although it looks very similar to the cover that Rimmers have on their site. I have attached a picture. Here is link to website page http://www.rimmerbros.co.uk/Item--i-GRID004248

wouldn't be the first time that Rimmers forgot the 260 is different from the FWD cars
