I've been searching the different posts, and on XOC too, and seemingly I can't find what the technical right Yellowtop for our 05/06 Xterra is that would fit without any extension mods. Is it the D34? D35 or it seems like some folks have been saying that the Exide Orbital is the only one that fits great. MC has had a great post on this,

but still doesn't really give the answer of the model that does fit in yellow.
Thanks!

As far I know we have to do an extension on the Pos Cable. Someone posted pictures and all how they did it using an end of a battery cable.
I think the exide is best for the money but that would be opinion not fact.
If mine went dead, I'd do the exide. Muzikman has studied up on this and he will chime in soon with better info.
AHH! You got lucky, a search reveals what I wanted to show you.

I would give a serious look at the Exide Orbital (Blue Top).

If you want an Optima Yellow top and not have to change anything to make it fit, you will want the D35. It's a reverse terminal Yellow top. The problem is it's a smaller battery.

Thanks much, that'll help too. So the Exide would need the extender piece then too, huh?
Thanks

If you look at the link, the answer is there. MC
