Default Need a new battery

Ive noticed the car starting to struggle at starting the last couple of days then this morning just clicks so had to jump it, once it was running I checked the battery with a multimeter and it was reading 14.68 volts so the alternator is ok.

My question is what battery do I get and where do I get it from remembering the battery needs to be sent to me as I live on a small island in the middle of now where

Cheers Richard

Just get a Honda OEM one, not that expensive and better than other crap i have tried. They are actually really good qaulity and well priced (well they were when i bought mine).

also. I looked around recently when mine finally gave up the ghost after a year or so of sluggish cranking (arf). Honda was one of the cheapest, and well-proven.
