hi william
the D31A for the starter battery fits but i use the blue top D27M in the arb tray the blue top has bean in there from 2014 but is on its way out now.
the yellow top has bean in for 2 year so far
just remember the arb tray is rated at 25kg
I used the blue top as I was told it will stand up to the vibrations better because the betting they take in a bout

if you pm me with your number I can send photo.

Thanks for the information Dave, the batteries finally arrived this week and have been installed; they certainly turn the motor over a little easier than the old ones. Hopefully I still have enough amp hours to manage the load whilst I am out and about, time will tell.

I have the blue top as aux, it’s awesome, pop a solar feed into it and your set.
