Anyone have one on hand? I need one for my car as it would seem mine has disappeared and they are no longer available. Found that my battery is bouncing up and making a contact to the battery cover. Bad deal.

If ya got one I'm buying.

Thanks.

Part # is now 928 611 209 02 GRV - Mark lists them used for $30. Did you see what he's got in stock?


EDIT: Still listed on the 1/13 Retail pricing list for $61.07. Yow.

First PCA autocross I ever went to, the tech tried to ding me for not having a battery hold-down. So I asked him to try to move the battery. Problem solved.

^^ LOL. thats great.

the question is, what are you doing that is making the battery jump up? parking curbs at 50mph?

Yes, good to know where that thing fits at last ! My battery also has its + pole cable connection covered, so it cant short anyway. Using the 88Ah battery doesnt leave much room to move anyway.

According to PET 928 611 209 02 is the same for 1978 through 1991. I tried to get one new and nobody could find one.

I didn't call Mark A but was told he was out of them as they are rare as hens teeth so I posted here hoping someone could help me out on it. Ed, If you have one I'd love to buy it from ya.

Hi,

I contacted these guys and they had one:

http://www.retroautomotiveproducts.com/

They mainly focus on 911s, but they bought out a 928 specialty shop and have some parts in stock. I ended up getting my battery holder from Mark, but after looking around they contacted me with a photo of the correct part. They might be a viable source, but I think you might need to be a little patient as they research their parts since they don't really specialize in the 928.

Cut a piece of cardboard and cover the battery with it??

^^^^ better to fit the correct plastic cover to the hot post or tie a piece of inner tube to the Hot terminal,
and wedge a small piece of wood behind the battery so it wont slide front to back,
and then get the correct hold down bracket

I used the + terminal cover that came with my new battery, modifed to fit around the clamp and wire.
