I'm right in the process of doing the same thing...just make sure you run 2
gauge cable back to the battery. Anything less is too small. Are you going
to run it all the way to the trunk area or right behind the front passenger
seat. I think I'm going to end up running mine to the trunk area. Not sure
yet though. Anyways, Sears makes a DieHard Gold for $39.99 with 340CCA.
Thats about the best I found. Their book listed it at 19 lbs but think it
might actually be lighter..feels like it. Other than that its pretty
straight forward...Oh, and they are 12V.
