Odyssey PC680 tie down?

I think I'd like to get an Odysset PC 680 battery, shown in the link below. What do you guys use to hold it in place? Is there a strap or a cover or something you guys use?

Also, just curious, but when mounting a battery in the trunk, why do you need the box to be air tight with an air vent that goes outside the car?

i used a hinge mounted to the fender and bent a piece of aluminum to fit around the battery to bolt it down in the same place the stock battery hold down is located, i used the trim piece that came with the k-n cai

Does this battery fit on its side in the stock battery tray?

the hold down is bolted to the fender and at the original battery bolt in the battery tray.

Where'd you get the hold down from?

well i made it from aluminum. i put a hinge on it, screwed the hinge to the fender to make the battery easier to remove.
