Default Need help with optima battery

Hi,

I want to get an Optima yellow top that will work for my 2007 C6. I purchased a 34DT from Sam's club, but it has to be reversed to fit in and I cannot get the vehicle power/ground wires to reach far enough to attach to the side posts. The battery manual states that the vehicle power cables should be attached to side posts (if more than one set of posts are used) with the other posts used for amps, etc.

As such, I need advice on which Optima Yellow Top dual post/terminal will work in the 2006+ C6. Any and all advice is appreicated.

You may want to check a D35 - it has passenger side negative, I just put one in my z. (trunk mount though)

I installed a D-35 in my 2007 C-6. It is the correct battery for a 2007.
