Battery Tie Down Options?

So with my new 8.4V Humpcell battery, its too big to fit with the old battery holders so I had to make a temporary one with some spare parts lying around. But its not ideal as it doesn't hold it very securely. So I was wondering what else is available out there that I can retrofit into my RC10 gold pan buggy?

You can always resolder the cells into the configuration you need.

Too lazy to do that
All I really need is something to hold it in place. The one end does fit snugly into the rear bulkhead area. Just need something to hold the front in place.

What about the velcro straps? I think I saw some by Losi

well anything you can bolt flat on the chassis you can slide the velcro strap under. I would start maybe with the old battery hold down bars one on each side with the velcro going underneath it
