Default Where to buy Optima yellow top battery

My 3.5 years old stock battery doesn't have the juice to run my two amps and one of them won't even come on anymore.

Does anyone here have access to Optima yellow battery or know where I can buy one at discount. Cheapest I've found was on ebay at 94.45+shipping.

I got it from http://www.autobahnpower.com/ for $140 shipped... some tna-sports place use to sell it a lot cheaper but they ran out of the yellow top that fits our S2k.. I got the yellow top 51... not 51r because the terminals are reversed and those aren't the ones for our car... but check around... maybe you'll find a better price... there isn't anyone on ebay selling that model battery for our car though....good luck!

STAY AWAY FROM batteriesareus.com. I ordered an optima yellow d51 from them back on Feb 2nd and still haven't gotten it or my refund! I started the refund process about a month ago and still nothing. I think I've talked to the owner (Dudley) about 20 times...ridiculous! I'm probably gonna have to take this up with my bank/Visa . In all my years of online shopping this has been my ONLY bad experience.
