Will an evo battery tie down fit on our lancer battery?

Vividracing.com says its for Evo/Lancer... so I am assuming that it fits the same. But from the pictures I see in all evos and lancers, it looks like their batteries are bigger than ours.


can anyone answer me?

i believe the batteries are different sizes, althought the size difference is negligible. if you want a lancer batter tie down, check out deyeme, they have radiator brackets, battery tie downs, and motor mounts for us:

I think you can use the same ones, but I'm not 100% sure, try emailing vividracing.

dam, i guess they stopped carrying them. i got myself some radiator brackets and battery tie down last year. they come brushed, but i hand polished them to add some BLING! to the engine bay. they look really nice, ashame they stopped carrying them. maybe you could email them and ask them about it. its just a simple cnc mill job, so it shouldn't take too long

I machined a battery tie down from a block of 2x4 inch aluminum. All I did was use an endmill and my old tie down as a reference I brushed the aluminum and sealed it with clear resin if you want I can do a write up or you can pestera local machinist prolly take him like 30 mins if I had to guess 50 bucks and a one of a kind original.
