every dimension was a little bit bigger, but the drastically lighter weight made it a bit easier to get into position. It locked down just fine. Slight rerouting of cables were necessary.

Thought everything was going to be a go but I didn’t know how much clearance existed from the top of the Optima and the frunk liner. Obviously not much at all as the tub won’t drop into place with the Antigravity battery installed. Appears to be 3/4” from seating all the way.

I don’t want to modify the frunk liner so I am going to see if my machinist can make me a bronze adapter that is thin on top and moves the posts to the sides.

The liner is a very close fit. I even had an issue routing an additional grounding cable without causing interference.

I thought the lithium battery posts were the unscrewable type, like on my Odyssey batteries. If they had been, I could have had an adapter machined.
