careful of the free installs..too...if they cant simply undo the terminal leads and lift the battery from the bracket...its not free.....I was in sears the other day....and they were charging a fee to replace a battery in the new style beetle....because the salesman stated it was more labor intensive due to the battery location in the car.....Not sure I wouldnt let the dealer do it...maybe one of those fixed priced items......a good service department will do that..vice selling the item and charging a labor charge for installation as well.
