Dear friends 

What are the dimensions of the plastic Battery cover that goes around the Battery please?

Also does anyone have one please?

Many thanks 😊

You are not alone:

It looks as though they have been discontinued.

I appreciate you seem to be aiming for perfection, but have you tried a breakers?

With a sample to hand 3D printing is an option, although probably not economically viable.

Around the Battery or over the top of the Battery covering the terminals? I have both 🙂

I can measure after the bank hol 🙂  could you give me a nudge if I dont get back to you?

So the air cooling lid has quite a complex geometry and the air tunnel inside too, I'm not sure how to get all the measurements you might need

might the Mk3 have a specific shaped tray that the Battery sits on and might that be summat to consider too !

just a thought

On Battery topics. very happy with my dealer in Lincoln.  Listers asked £104 for a new Battery for my LS400 mkIII delivered.  I bit their hand off.

Lexus dealer is the best option and cost wise is very competitive. That was the consensus of opinion when I bought my Battery.

Not sure if you've had any luck yet but I think it's just a case of keeping an eye on eBay. I was just in the right place at the right time and managed to get both off @steve2006. Like you I wanted both items for "completeness".

Unfortunately I think the Battery jackets get thrown away because they warp out of shape due to heat from the engine. Mine's warped but just fits when it's secured in place.
