Interstate. You'll also get a core refund if you bring in your dead battery.

...the money I spent on the yellow top was well worth it tho.

OK I have been getting a few PM's for the Yellow Top's. I selected model # D34/78 which is the dual post batt which should satisfy all your needs!

Here is the first deal I can get!

$193.00 CANADIAN + TAX. = $221.00
OR $144.00 US

Because I have a FEW people asking for them I'm going to see if I can combine all the orders and get them all for cheaper!

I will post and let everyone know if I get a better deal!

then just pick up any battery that'll fit

or any deep cycle, but that won't give you much more time if you keep leaving your lights on, which shouldn't even happen since my 92's lights turn off automatically when i open the door

you might have some sort of other parasite

For sure...if you need it right away go ahead and get it.

its not worth your while to have me send it next day delivery to you!

Sometimes you just gotta bend over and take some punishment for the cars you love!

LA

Besides....if working on cars was not so hard....it would not be as cool!

Good Luck buddy!
