Which Optima to get???

I am looking into getting an Optima battery but do not know which to get for the L. Also what all is involved in making the battery fit where the factory one goes.

Thanks
Damon

Well I bought the RED top because it matched my L. It died more then once.(E-fan and intercooler pump and fans)

So I got the yellow top ( the better one) and have not had a problem since.

Is that battery holder strong enough hold the battery if mounted unside down? What I would like to do is mount my battery under the bed but I don't really want to make a custom bracket to fasten it there. I want to buy one, along with the battery, like Vinne's and mount it to my bed upside down. So, is it possible? Thanks!
