Hey Everyone,

It is time to replace the battery located in the passenger's rear bin.

Just trying to get an idea of options.

For those of you who currently have this setup, what battery do you have?

 

most people have the optima or Miata battery. I bought the kit fromPettit.
Dude, I gotta say: you got a bunch of mods on your car and you have a decent amount of posts... couldnt you have hit the search button on this?

I was looking for model number of battery people are currently using. I realize some model numbers listed in the posts are no longer made.

 

deka here, awesome lil battery

 

Odyssey PC1200.

I had to shave the base from the bin.

 

optima redtop but some cutting was required and i used all stinger components and 0 ga. wire i am glad i did because there is a noticeable drag due to the length of wire to move it back and the windows now go a little slower. if u need info i have pics and all the part numbers i used just pm me

 

WestCo Miata. I had to replace the battery after I purchased it ... I'm not sure what exactly went wrong with it but after a month or so it wouldn't hold a charge. I believe my Alternator killed it. /not sure

I drove down to westco battery (they're near LA) and they pulled another one right out of the warehouse for me w/ no questions asked. Great group of people.


I highly highly recommend them
