Well, if you're not the original owner, this is entirely possible. People have been known to shave the trunk key hole. Or maybe you've got the keyhole plug installed?

Yeah, some people are funny that way.

I know it's a little late for you as you already have a new battery, but I could not be happier with my Optima Yellow top. I noticed marked improvement starting the car and the idle seemed to be better post-install.

I was also noticeing that at idle, my parking lights would flickering in sync with my sub. Post-yellow top, no more flicker.
