I have an autozone yellow top in my car shorter but wider than stock. You just need to remove the stock battery tray and buy a bigger tray and screw it down. Easy stuff.

I am not home or I would measure it for you.

I just replaced my stock Panasonic battery with a Optima D51 Yellow Top. They are the same dimensions. After all of the negative feedback I heard about them, I just had to try it. It is awesome. Even though I have a 1 farad electolytic cap, I used to get a bit of light dimming when the music hit hard. I do not anymore.
