Get the biggest one that will fit in the gap. Agricultural suppliers are good for large, cheap batteries.

It shouldn't matter about what side the terminals are. Just turn the battery round.

I didn't bother saying that, thought it was a bit too obvious

Maybe as easy as that, unless the terminals are then at the front of the battery. The correct orientation of the battery, terminals are positioned at the rear.

Thanks for replys .would be easier to turn battery around if the leads were not so short also dont want to cross them over each other,so positive has to be on right hand side. thanks for all replys anyways.
