Default What parts needed for lightweight batteries?

PSJ and I got a set of light weight batteries but are still unclear of the parts we need.. I did a search and the results were unclear..

I see that thunder racing has side post adapters. How well will they work? I tried calling them before but nobody answered. They are also $20 which seems kinda pricy.

Is there something I can pick up local? I'd rather go that route.. I have Pep Boys, Autozone, Murrays, Napa all around me. I'll stop by this evening and see what they have.

I remember reading something about "marine" adapters?

Thanks!

I took the stock (nubby)bolts out of the terminals and just matched up a bolt size to my hawker battery (6mmX1.0) and added 4 washers to each bolt and tightened it down, been on there for a week driving it day and night no problems <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" /> . You don't need any fancy terminals.
Just look at my post in this section, look at the picture u will see what I am talking about I think.
