Buy the equivalent amperage rating and same type (FLA or AGM - tell by color). Should be $150-160 at Autozone.
If you want to reset the battery age you can, but many say not necessary. $50 to set battery age (update date of installation in computer) at most Indies.

If buying new batterie with the same specs as the used one. It's required to confirm battery replacement and histogramm reset.
If buying a different one, higher Ah etc, it'll requires coding.
