Going to fit my FMIC in a couple of weeks and don't want to mess around mounting the battery in the boot, has anyone local got a spare small one sitting around they'll be willing to part with in exchange for some monies :D

it's for my s14a and it's a daily drive and does do short journies so all the ampage etc need to be good.

if not, can anyone reccommend a suitable one to get from halfrauds?

cheers rick

i bought a varta asia battery never had a problem with it you need little slip on lead things for the top of it though so it fits the clamps. starts even if been sitting for a while 3 weeks plus. I have it so long i cant remeber where i got it from. :wack: up glos road somewhere about £50

very interesting, is it an acid (standard type) battery or a sealed race type jobbie?

sxrory - if you could get some details of it that would be grand, might go for a poke around halfords, see what they've go and at what prices, might pick up a couple of those tastey looking 9 volts ;)
