Battery
« on: 21 July 2012, 14:41 »
I know it's sort of been asked before but can't find a direct answer, can anyone advise me to what is the best battery to buy? Have a sub and an amp on my 16v thanks

Mines on an 8V and think its an S3 - but which ever one is correct for the model & correct size so it don't slide about or overhang the front leg/arm..

You can get a standard one for your car, but get one with an increased amp hours rating to help with the amp and speakers.


Simple.

I got a Bosch silver s4 with big amp hours and even though the measurements on line were correct it was too big when I picked it up from europarts...
