Using this Perrin battery tie down is easy. First, make sure your battery is an OEM size, as fitment with aftermarket batteries isn't guaranteed. Check your battery for any leaks from the caps on top. If there are leaks, replace the battery because battery acid will void the warranty. Next, follow the included installation instructions, and you should be able to finish the installation in about 10 minutes. To maintain it, keep it clean and dry. Regularly check for any signs of wear or damage. If you notice anything unusual, contact the manufacturer. Enjoy the stylish look it brings to your engine bay while it keeps your battery firmly in place.
