Default Another newbie question..............

When using the factory Delco battery, and putting on a terminal post, do I have to modify the battery cable, or does the cable screw into the end where the bolt screws in? Would it be better to spring for a yellow top, so that I have the stock connections and the tops for the stereo. I want the yellow top because it matches my car, and I want to do it right the first time. :D I also store the cart in the winter, and I heard that this battery was good for that.

Depending on what you are gonna do with your system, I'd "spring" for a red top. You would only need a yellow if you wanted to run the stereo all day at a car show (or if your car is yellow I guess)

I'm just a casual listener, but I like the sound quality/clarity, much more than I'm worried about it going the high db. I've got Viper 650.2's for the front, Mikes sub box for bass, and a PPI PCX4125 amp to run it all. Thanks for the help (and I'm kidding about the yellow top, as I can always put a cover on the battery).
