[TR] bb liner fills up?

[acekraut11 at aol.com]

 Paul,

For me the important purpose of the battery box was to hold IN battery acid if the battery should leak, sparing my paint finish from ruin.? If you have water in your battery box your problem is the seal on your hood, not the battery box.? My two cents would be to buy one that is intact, and leave it that way and hope that it collects neither battery acid or rain.

Cheers,

Aaron

I haven't yet ordered a new battery-box liner from TRF or Moss.  I wonder if
their even worthwhile without a hole in them?  (Does one need to scoop
rainwater out of their bb because it lacks a hole in it?)  I also wonder if
their from the same manufacturer or is there a difference between Moss and
TRF's?
   I've measured it and my battery-box is both an inch longer and almost an
inch wider than the liner's dimensions given in the catalog, does that mean it
won't fit right?
Thanks, Paul
