    Battery Terminal Covers

    Using the 2 battery set up for my '70,

    I am using the correct battery terminal covers on the Positive posts. Are the Negative posts exposed, or are there covers I should be using?

    Thanks

    That's definitely the plastic cover that came with the battery.

    From an electrical point of view there is no need for a cover over the negative terminal.

    Here is a pix of correct + terminal cover from Porsche. One installed and one up side down, sitting on the battery. Hard rubber material. Gled

    Correct. The positive terminal is the one that gets the cover.
