I'm sure the people where you go to buy your battery can help you. If you aren't taking your car, take measurements before you go and bring a tape measure with you. Of course, I'm assuming that you aren't looking for the recommended replacement for your car or you wouldn't be asking this question.

That battery looks really expensive.

With the guys impatience it looks like he needs one now (meaning he cant wait for it to arrive), So If he does and is going to a parts store just tell the guy what kinda car you have, and he/she will look it up and tell you (most will walk to the battery rack and grab it for you).

EDIT: everybody beat me to it. but, If I remember correctly its a 35 series battery (dont quote me on that though).

Why don't you ask the people at the battery place for help? If you don't have your car with you, take measurements before you leave and take a tape measure with you.

sorry for the duplicate (sort of) posts. There was an error the first time and I didn't think it went through.

I work at Batteries Plus. A group 35 and I think a 26 will fit. I got a 35 in my car now.

Yeah, 35 sounds right. Onc eyou get it, compare it to the old battery and if its the wrong size, go back and tell them they got you the wrong one. It helps to bring the old battery with you so they can dispose of it properly, plus you can compare it before you buy it.
