New Battery Required

Hi Everyone,
I need to get a new battery for a Pontiac Firebird 1991 V6 (its still got the stock battery that came with the car).

Does anyone know of any suppliers in the UK or can anyone suggest a place to buy one on the net?

Thanks,
Best Regards,
Mike

Re: New Battery Required

Wow! still working? or recently dead? 20yr old battery? Black top with a white bottom?
Unless the car has been sitting I'd bet its been changed and more than once!
Sorry, I'm not sure where you'd get a replacement..

Re: New Battery Required

It's an EXTREMELY common battery; 75 series if memory serves. Fits a whole lot of different kinds of cars.

I'd suggest going to a store that has car batteries. Should fix you right up, no prob.
