How is the jumper attached to the R59 post? Reason I ask, is that I have a real R59 Store Sample, which has a standard case with no guts. I planned to cut the bottom to install an AGM battery, but never got around to it.

The battery case jumper leads bolt to the Odyssey Battery terminals.

I know how the lead attaches to the Odessey, but I was asking about the other end which attaches somehow to the underside of the lead positive and negative posts.

Jim's battery manufacturing in Youngstown Ohio makes them. You may have to wait a couple of months but they did a battery for a friends 59 Corvette.
