Default Battery question.
Hi guys,

My battery must have leaked. My battery tray got all rusted out. Thank god nothing else was touched. I am thinking of getting an aftermarket battery, battery tray and battery tie down to make it look neater. Any suggestions of where I can get some? I live in Suffolk NY. It would be help if it is local. Please share some pictures if you have any. Thank you so much for your help.

Great. Thanks.

Has anyone tried this battery before? Any thoughts on it?

I use a optima yellow top on my S.

Stock battery (1 year old) could not handle my sound system and electronics.

Yellow top fixed that problem.

Had the yellow top for about 2 1/2 years now. Hopefully it holds up.

Save the $$, neutralize the acid, wire brush the OEM stuff and repaint it.

I went throught this in January. Replaced my 2nd OEM and went with a Sears Diehard. I'm getting close to three years on a OEM battery.
