Nice replacement.
Posts are a bit smaller then the factory stock cables so get the extentions while your there to avoid getting into your car and having no connection.

Comments about AutoCraft Silver Battery, Group Size 26R, 575 CCA:
I needed a replacement battery when my car was struggling to start. I ordered this battery online and picked it up in-store. Probably the easiest way to buy parts. I was able to walk in a pick it right up. The install of the new battery was a sinch. I just had to loosen the battery cables on the old one, pull it out, and reverse the removal for the installation of the new battery. The new battery was already charged and ready and the car started right up without any hesitation. I would definately recommend this battery.

Comments about AutoCraft Silver Battery, Group Size 26R, 575 CCA:
Ready for pickup at the store. Still disappointed in the fact they no longer Pro-Rate this battery. It has 2-year replacement only.
It's a lot of money (over $100.00) for a battery with only a two year warranty.

Comments about AutoCraft Silver Battery, Group Size 26R, 575 CCA:
Use this battery for a vintage car that I drive in nice weather but sits all winter long. Buy it every time because it is the cheapest one but always gets the job done. Lasts approximately 3 years without ever disconnecting it in the winters; might need a slight charge the first time each spring though. Never needs recharging after that during the year. Best buy for the money and I will continue buying it as needed.

Comments about AutoCraft Silver Battery, Group Size 26R, 575 CCA:
I purchased this battery as a replacement for my 5 year old battery out of my 2006 Honda Accord EX. The guys at Advance said this is the exact replacement for my OEM Battery. I immediately noticed upon installation that this battery is a lot smaller then OEM. It even has less cold cranking amps then my OEM one does. It does the job though. After a month I have not had any problems. The battery just looks funny in the engine bay because it is so much smaller. Oh well. As long as it works, that is all that matters to me.

Replaced my 8 year old Mazda 3 battery with this one. Works great. Advance did a great job with the free installation and checked out the charging system for free too. Can't beat that!

Q:
Why does it say it "Requires top height adapter"? I have a 2006 Subaru Outback wagon 4 cyl. Although your site says the Group 35 and the Group 26R are both exact fit for my car, if you measure the original battery only the 26R will work, the 35 is too tall.Asked on 11/9/2012 by dresdenron1 answer
CUSTOMER CARE
A:
The 26R battery is slightly smaller in dimension compared to a 35 group battery. The 35 group battery will still fit your 2006 Subaru Outback wagon 4 cylinder with a tight fit. While the AutoCraft Silver Battery, Group Size 26R, 575 CCA - Part No. 26R-3 which is smaller may need a top height adapter to fulfill the height factor.

Q:
in charging this bat
tery, what is the amp setting?Asked on 3/25/2012 by Anonymous1 answer
CUSTOMER CARE
A:
An automotive battery 5-amp to 10-amp is considered a slow charge while 20-amp or above is generally considered a fast charge. Fully charging a completely discharged automotive battery, for example, with a 10-amp charger may take approximately 6-10 hours at a temperature of 80°F. Lower ambient temperatures require a longer charge time. Repeated fast charges may overcharge a battery and reduce service life.Answered on 3/27/2012 by Vincent from AAP
