Don't know where you are but if you want to keepyour car original with the
dual 6 volts I recommend going to NAPA. I have had excellent luck with
these batteries. The pair I have in the car are at least 5 years old and
still start the car up with out a problem. They are a bit weak in the
winter but that's to be expected. I have tried the battery in the trunk
thing with little success. Others on the list have put a group 26 battery in
one of the battery boxes with success. At least I have not read of any bad
experiences (provided you have a good ground etc.)!
Good Luck
Safety Fast!
