My Ride: 2007 ★ Alpine White
Went to Autozone and bought the Duralast Gold/Battery Part Number: 95R-DLG today and had them test it before i bought it. Had a 89% charge still. Replaced the battery using this video
except I didn't cover up the positive wires. It took me about 15 mins to do the whole job.. Had a quick battery discharge error when I turned it on so I turned it off then restarted it and the error went away. So far so good. Took the original battery back to Autonzone to get my core charge back of $12. I had the battery since November 2006. I had them test it and it still had a 76% charge. Battery was still good, but I really didn't care to keep the battery still.
Battery Cost $161 + tax
Labor Cost $0

Hopefully, you DIDN'T stick that cardboard in yours! OMG, in this guys video, which was informative, he really should have taken the exact physical size battery and avoided that cardrboard...
