Battery Hold-Down

Bad news is my battery died. Good news is, it's under warranty. They gave me a replacement. The battery is much bigger than the stock size battery and the stock battery hold-down doesn't fit. I can't be the only one with a bigger battery. What have people used as a hold-down in place of the stock hold-down?

The original battery for my 1976 F-250 was a size 24F. (The one in the photo is a 24.) I used a stainless steel hold down on it. Later I switched to a size 27F. The same hold down fit on it also.
