Looking for a new starter battery that will fit perfectly without any
mods.  Does anyone know that actual dimensions of the starter battery
compartment? Searched all over The Samba and this list archives and
couldn't find it.  Found lots of other very useful info, though!

Pep Boys website is the only one that lets me look up the battery by group
#.  It's also very conveniently located and my favorite place to buy
batteries.  My choices are below:

http://www.pepboys.com/product/details/9073724/854/   *11.25" x 7" x 7"
 (approx)*

http://www.pepboys.com/product/details/9074039/00854   *9.5" x 6.875" x *
*6.875**"  (exact)  (hard to find size)*

http://www.pepboys.com/product/details/672432/00854  *11" x 7" x 7.5"
 (approx)*

*http://www.pepboys.com/product/details/9929968/00854
<http://www.pepboys.com/product/details/9929968/00854>  11" x 7" x 7"
 (approx)*

*Bosch Battery Brochure

(PDF)*

​All but the second from the top are Bosch with a 3 year replacement and
have more than enough CCA.  (I don't have any plans to camp in snow,
anyway!)  Not concerned about any of the prices of the above batteries.
I'd rather have too small than too big - I just want the best fit possible!
