I just bought an Odyssey for the 996 (PC680) although it doesn't quite fit and I had to 'encourage' ;) it to stay there.

Great battery though - not cheap however ..

yeah I could have I guess - I was in awe of the cranking capacity etc of the PC680 and was overcome with lust! :o

ahem ...

I'm going to be doing more short trips so I thought it prudent to go the whole hog - so to speak :oink: (damn : o i n k : )
