[CENTER]As the title says these are mirror finish stainless steel battery covers, ( Always shiney even after being on my car for 4 years now).
These are a small batch that has been done with a griffin logo laser cut into the top of the battery cover. They come in the 2 standard sizes I normally supply vauxhalls in 250*175 or 285*175 and can have a backing colour of red blue, black, yellow or green (This panel is easilly detachable and could be changed for a colour coded one for your car if you can get the colour you want.

Price £35 if paying by cheque/Postal orders or £36.50 if paying by credit card/paypal

Looks as if this is the case on corsa's and the later "G" astras so might look into getting the badge cut at 90 degrees

Covers can be made to what ever size you require but these are not off the shelf so if you need a bigger one it has to be ordered.
The covers where originally designed for calibras and as such it now appears tht the griffon would be the wrong way round for corsa's. As such i'll get another batch done with the griffon facing the other way. 2 questions come to mind
1 which way do the leads usually go from the top of the batteries as these covers have 1 side missing for the leads to leave from.
2. what size would people be looking for

looking at Matt h's pic
mine actually come out the side facing the engine (Towards the left of the pic)
it would appear his come out diffrently so this might be complicated...
Guessing this also only works for batterys with covered terminals?
metal on exposed metal isnt a good idea im guessing

 MMM now why didn't I think of that. The underside of the battery has vulcanised rubber or similar attached to it to prevent shorting out of the terminals
