Just encountered this on my cousins car, new battery and it fires right up. The cold weather really messes with batteries. Old ones tend to not work.

i have a red top, it was kind of a she dog to get it in. 1000w sound system, extra lights, and 3 years running strong. no cold start issues. 1000CA and 800 CCA for like $140 at sams club

damn did not know sams club sold optima batteries. will have to renew my membership there. ya i have a system going in this summer so the redtop would be a good choice. now did you use the stock battery clamp and did you have to modify the battery tray at all.

i flipped the tray upside down and i bent the positive terminal slightly so it would fit over the corner of the battery
