    Locking in Battery

    Hi all

    Im sure there is an easy trick to this, but i recently switched out my battery in my 88 M6. I am having issues securing the battery with the clamp. Currently, the battery keeps sliding around in the battery box. Any help or guidance securing the battery would be greatly appreciated. I have had no luck finding a youtube video on this.

    Your new battery is smaller? Or are you putting it back together incorrectly?

    New battery but the same size and make. Was just wondering if there is a trick to getting the flange to fit.
