sorry, i thought mine came up to like $105. but i think i got a ground cable with it too. deffinately the best place around for batteries and SOME alternators. they sold my friend a refurb alt. for $70.

good deal. people just don't shop around enough, so they never find the good deals.

I believe Pep Boys still carries them.

There is a new Interstate up here in Buford, but I'm not sure if its open yet.

Have you considered Kinetik. They are about the same price but charge faster so your alternator doesn't work quite as hard. Here's one for Honda and Mitsu but they make all kinds. http://cgi.ebay.com/KINETIK-CAR-AUDIO-BATTERY-POWER-CELL-NEW-KHC1400_W0QQitemZ270137518512QQihZ017QQcategoryZ14 932QQcmdZViewItem

find someone that can get blemished ones for you. my friends dad got me a yellow top for $55 and red tops were like $45. only thing wrong with them is there may be a little scratch on them.

your pm box is full... so....

just wanted to say thanks for meeting up with me. i really appreciated it. i'll let you know if the battery ends up working or not lol... hopefully it works. *crosses fingers*

and my bad about not being able to stay longer... i had my girl and my dog and both of them were grouchy and hungry. i've already learned my lesson when it comes to depriving them from food hahah

anyways... when i get my car up and running, you should come out again. :goodjob:
