Is it a number 35"?

FWIW, when I got a #35 Optima for my Celica, the label would have been upsided down to place the terminals in the proper position. Fortunately, I was able to peel off the label and position it correctly.

Anway, perhaps the Duracell in question is their number 35 and you just have to position the terminals correctly.

The most important question is, when you do turn it around, will the +and - terminals be on their proper sides and not reversed?

Actually yeah I'm a retard LOL the picture just showed it backward. The + and - are on the correct sides.

Speaking of NAPA - I just went there to pick one up and the dumbest kid ever tried to sell me what looked like a 18 wheeler battery... wtf. Didn't have any Duracell, will have to check another store.
