Battery question dont know watt to do

hi dan, heck, cb and young yount- my 92 245 from 2011 had no holddown nor bolt, just a bolt hole. the battery which I had to replace slid in on the sides of the battery floor . didn't want to deal with a dealer who wanted to clip me $150 for it. instead made up a small angle iron to hold batt down the slides. angle iron holds the battery in using a little protruding edge on the long end of the batt. would not pass inspection by hoity toitys or mine enemies. saw the original oem black plastic holdowns for $5 on the net. trying to figure out if that is designed to slip over the battery case edge. what think you? anyone have a picture of how that is supposed to look. thanks tons oldduke (want to win the top jalopy trophy in the 240 division at annual Volvo convention)
