OK, turns out the DPI battery tie-down is actually nylon straps going through a spring-loaded tensioner. I said it was velcro in the last post but once I got it out of the bag I see I was incorrect!
Super easy install - four M6 nyloc nuts on the outside of the car to remove, withdraw the old strap brackets (mine had no buckles anymore), vacuum out the compartment, and install the new ones. They are stainless so will last forever. I'm thinking I will actually put a bit of RTV under each exterior washer to make sure it is waterproof. It's a very high quality set and the price reflects it.
I also updated my other front turn signal and installed a weather pack connector for it and then replaced the lighting harness cable clips and stainless hardware that goes into the body.
I don't really have anything else to work on at the moment until Monday when my A/C adapters arrive!

Old battery-acid damaged straps

New strap kit installed. The other wires you see to the right of the battery are for the stereo system. I'd love to replace that section of carpet however it doesn't seem to be available anymore.
