SL55 battery question
I need both batteries on my 05 sl55. Are these batteries specific to Mercedes Benz or can I replace them with aftermarket ones and if I can use aftermarket ones which ones do you guys recommend. Thanks.

Thanks for the link but I am trying to buy aftermarket batteries that are better than the Mercedes brand. I just don't know if they are available for this car.

If you go to an Auto Zone, NAPA, etc., they may be able to match the batteries.

They can be replaced with aftermarket. I replaced my rear battery with an Interstate one.
