    Honest, I searched the site and there are too many non-ranked hits so I am reasking.
    My UltraEnergy battery is on it's last legs.
    Can anyone recommend a good replacement battery that fits nicely in the stock 512i battery well with the clamp bar? Apparently it is a Group 34R battery. A specific manufacturer and model number would be very helpful. I have no brand preference.

    I just took my old battery to the local auto parts store. They measured its dimensions, checked its load level (CCAs) and found a replacement, no prob.

    Got a Sears Group 34R battery.
    It took 30 minutes of sweat (and yelling) to get the clamp off the positive terminal of the old battery. The battery was 7.5 years old.
    New battery went in lickety split.
    My goodness, she starts quickly now!
