03 cl55 battery replacement

Is it true that you should only use oem battery for the car? Anyone have experiences with aftermarket ones?

I think there are a few options but if you plan to keep the car for a while, I would stay with the MB battery..

M-B battery is just a different colored re-labelled Interstate battery..............so get whatever you want that has the same or more juice.
