When I installed my Diehard, it came with a kit to connect its vent
hose to the car's.  It's been a while since I changed the battery, so
I don't remember the exact setup but I do remember the kit.

One thing you can try is go back to Sears and take a look at a Diehard
International battery on the shelf.  The kit should be taped to the
battery.
