Halfords should have a reference guide, I reccomend getting a heavy duty one if you have the option - especially if you run a power hood and amps

Bosch would have been cheaper from eurocarparts but i needed the battery today.
Anyway, i'm not fussed as long as it works (and i can peel the Halfords sticker off!)
