sorry dude, i think your SOL. honestly, track down a machinist and have him make you one. did you try contacting deyeme to see if they can make you one? i'm sure they still have the template.

bottom line, your going to have to do some leg work if you really want this

I own a battery tie down from vividracing.com and it's a perfect fit.

I'm bringing our battery hold-down bracket back, due to popular demand. It fits the '00-'05 Eclipse, '01-'05 Stratus Coupe, and Lancers (including EVO). The bracket is brushed 6061-T6 aluminum, and comes with aluminum nuts (so you don't have the crank it down very tight, and it won't work loose).

Just the battery hold-down bracket that we make. I don't know if anyone elses would or would not. It may depend on the mounting points and the complexity of design. Our bracket is very straightforward in form and function.

They're gonna take more of my money, aren't they?

I guess I should get the motor mounts installed first before I pick up a set of brackets!

Hey guys, I have an update on the battery hold-downs. I finally found a machine shop to do these for me, and with some nice add-ons. We now have them available in ANODIZED (blue, red, silver, black), as well as polished, and the ever-popular (and affordable) brush finish.

They fit all the way up to '06 Lancers, and even the EVOs, as well as the '00-up Eclipse we originally designed them for.
