    I fitted one of these in mine last year, biggest I could get in the budget I had at the time. Cost me £85.95 delivered from http://www.battery2u.co.uk/type-110-...18-silver.aspx looks like it may have gone down in price since then too.

    Lol, it's nothing special, just kept clean and with the blue Maptun hoses fitted, there's WAY nicer bays on here than mine, some guys have really gone to town on theirs.
