Nathaniel, there is only one deep cycle battery that will fit in that compartment under the drivers seat. That is the OPTIMA yellow top. And, it will not fit without a few minor modifications to the compartment lid.
Is this true even with a Wolfsburg Westfalia with the factory aux battery under the driver's seat? I don't have swivel seats if that matters. The PO put a starting battery in there and I need to get a new one this summer. I don't want to go chasing after a deep cycle if none will fit. Thanks, Clint |
