You can check the size of my battery against yours on the net.
The mega fuse is easy to change from slotting down the side to over the top.

I've got it like this so far... Not the same as your pic but it fits
The cover doesn't go back on though without hacking at the plastic but then seems a bit pointless.. just insulate it with tape? It's been apart before because the seal is broken!
I've got the main wire to the fuse and the 3 smaller ones direct to the terminal. That's how it was already

Looks slightly diff to my mega fuse as my red came out the top.
Take it off turn it over and bolt back to the terminal.
Pretty sure I had the "black C shaped" bit left over ;) for some reason.
Cant remember having to tape anything.

This is it fitted.
Taped just because the lid won't go on. It's not close to the bodywork to be a real worry. It all looked the same when i took it to bits but it's the only way it will go back together on this car with this battery

Battery fitted and computer reset. BMS doesn't have the option for the battery fitted but it's close. Set to 90ah/950cca with a 110ah/950cca battery fitted. It will have to like it

Well interesting progress.
Battery only charges to 13.6v, , with the old battery on it went to about 14.8v.
After a while it jumps around between 12.0-13.6, i presume that's once it thinks it's full.

More interestingly since i had the car, the heater has been rubbish and wouldn't hold the temperature during winter.. since i fitted the new/used battery the other week it's been better, holding the correct temp but still a bit glitchy. With the brand new battery on, fingers crossed, it's perfect!! The temp and blower speed all work on auto and there seems to be more heat coming to the rear vents! 🤯🥳
