Import Tips
• Provide OEM specifications confirming fit for lead-acid batteries like those in cars or trucks
• Label clearly as 'replacement parts for lead-acid storage batteries' to distinguish from complete units
• Comply with automotive safety standards (e.g
• SAE J551) for electromagnetic compatibility
