Car Battery Replacement

smurfette2212

Afternoon all. I was just wondering if anyone could give me any advice on where I might be able to a) get a new car battery and b) get it fitted, preferably in the city centre. I've already tried calling the place in the Tesco Shopping Centre, but no dice - the lady said that they have very few batteries in stock. I've read that it is an easy enough job to do, but I wouldn't have a clue where to start! Thanks

Did you try Halfords ?

Halfords if you're not sure how to replace it.

I don't even think we own a tool-box, so I best ring a professional! Thanks for the suggestions.

In that case Halfords will fit it for you. Many motor factor will also it but Halford advertise the service.

note how that video never bothered to clean the battery mold on top of + terminal first,kettle full of hot water to clean first,and i would use a ring spanner or socket to tighten battery nuts not pliers or open end spanner.
