My Cadillac's battery is on its way out, which given the battery has been in the car since new [2000] isn't too bad.

So to replace I'd much prefer to spend less... does anyone know of a UK supplier [I can see some stateside] for a side-terminal to normal post adapter? That way I can get a battery for around £60 instead of a £140 red-top.

I'd also get a pair for the Corvette - this way I can keep the original side-terminal threads but use a standard battery (etc.).

Thanks in advance for any help. I cannot believe the Cadillac - which is only an itsy bitsy 4.6L - needs a whopping 880 CCA battery... but there you go, the price of luxury

After the deluge of responses to this just to advise that I sourced these from Keith at Eurovettes - as ever, Keith very helpful.
