Of course, if you want to stick with the true CSL ethos then maybe consider these:

tbh as funny as you guys are, its a pretty cheap way of saving over 8kg, for only £130 (when i bought mine)
So thats £16 per kg. if only the rest of the weight loss was so cheap and easy!

I have one of these http://www.braillebattery.co.uk/inde...teries/b2015c/
I also bought the light-weight mounting kit which has been siliconed to the battery bay floor (didn't want to drill holes in the car). Aside from the battery saving weight, you can also remove that heavy galvanized strap! Will take some pictures at the weekend if anyone interested.

You haven't come to your senses to clear out that boot have you Rich!?
I also run the Braille 8317 & made an aluminum battery clamp to house it and as Shim states it a v.cheap way of saving over the OEM CSL (bmw mini) @ 15.6kg. Think the saving over the Z4M battery is 12+Kg. It wont hold its charge as long as its fatter alternative so if the car isnt being driven make sure to trickle charge it.
