New Battery

Got this today from Euro Car Parts in the post. I went out to fit it and it's slightly bigger than the old battery and didn't quite fit in the battery casing at the bottom. It does sit in there and I have secured it with the metal screw in clip thing. I did give them my reg and it is meant to be for the 2.5 180. Will this matter as it's now in the car and running absolutely fine. 680cca and 70 AH.

If it is secure then it will be fine.
