    Thanks for a good review! This video is the only one that mentions which battery post to take off first (negative) and put on first (positive). Would be nice to explain why.

    Count on battery hold downs to be different on all cars.
    I don’t know why he ackowledged that the locator clip is specific to the car model but seemed to stay with the impression that every application will have a J-hook type hold down bracket.

  12. NaptownNinja says:

    I love how he’s like. “This is a J hook, it looks like a J. The J hook lives in a hole…” I feel like I’m watching a nature program or something.

  19. 3wheeler016 says:

    He should have said that you NEVER set a battery on cement. Old or new. It can ruin it.

  20. RichardNixonsHalfDea says:

    Whoa!?! What u need is a nice back rub! Take a deep breath – count to 10 or 100 whatever works for u. Remember it is just the dyslexia gene that is speaking. Forgive him Lord. Jesus understands. This is an excellent example of what Adam & Eve handed down to mankind….imperfection & God…I don’t no how to replace a battery. Myself? I haven’t figured it out yet. My soninlaw took the battery away so I don’t know the original set up. So, the red end goes with the red cable rite?
