I like the lithium battery. It cost a little more but a lot more convenient and lighter weight. No acid or water to fool with.

I have a PC680 Odyssey battery in my 07, not a drop in battery but if you’re handy it can fit. Last 680 lasted about 7 years.

Mine is the biggest Yuasa I can stuff in there, with the highest cranking Amps.
I think it’s 24 Amp/hrs…
Pete Roper’s sage advice is…
Load the new battery with acid and allow time for the glass mat to absorb the contents before applying the steady charge.
Follow the manufacturer’s instructions properly.
