Are they still selling the battery “toppers”? Not what you are looking for but they do the job at a glance. Yea...they do, but those are bit....cheesy. I may just put a modern battery in the car while I do the gutting of the case and odyssey 925 install. But if there are true resto batteries available I’d rather just do that.

I wish they would reproduce something similar to a "topper" but with sides as well. That way, it just slides over a modern battery, looks the part, but is a modern battery.
A battery is a consumable item and these OE appearing ones can't be bought at every corner store and certainly not for $100 or so. I know I wouldn't want to shell out $250-$300 for an OE appearing battery and only get a couple years out of it.
