Default Anyone have an Optima Yellow top?

I was looking for an Optima Yellow top battery but it seems that all the stores don't have them and they can't order them. Does anyone have one installed in their car and have the part number or something. It just seem kindda weird that you can only get red tops but not the yellow.

Thanks in advanced for the help.

If I am not mistaken it's 13x8.5 inches just for the stock battery but the tray will accomendate a bigger batter without the plastic cover installed over it

I installed a Stinger SPP1500D deep cycle battery and changed the wires to 0 gauge when I installed my system.
