Does the replacement battery secure in place at all? If not, can it tip over without the clamp in place? If the battery cannot tip over or shift such that undesired contact (short to positive terminal/ground, battery shift into pulleys, etc.) occurs, then the "flange" issue is somewhat moot.

It's in a tight space, where it can't really slide into a dangerous place. But when I tried the first battery that didn't tie down, I didn't realize that elantra batteries were hard to find, so I returned it, thinking that the next store I went to would probably have one.
I'd rather not have the battery sliding around if it's not hard or expensive to do. I know it can't slide far, but I'm just that way.
