battery tiedown help

[Clip]

i can't figure for the life of me how the hell toyota got their battery to stay put. does anyone have pics of the battery tiedown, or whatever you guys did to get the battery to stay in place? i've got an optima that loves to slide whenever i corner.

1 bolt on rad shroud, 1 long one going to battery tray with a bracket over top.

Can sort of see it in this pic:

great shot, thanks for the info, guys. what does the long bolt look like, anyone have a shot of that?

ive got a j and an l shape bolt about the right length, don't see a hole or anything to thread or hook into.

it hooks into like a little lip thing at the underside of the battery tray

so it's just a curved bolt?
