You don't even need the receipt.

They put a sticker with the month and date of purchase on the battery and any dealer will warranty that

I think you need to prove you're the original purchaser - which they can do with dealer records or a receipt. My car came with an OEM battery that died still in the warranty period but they wouldn't honor it without the original receipt.

I put a Costco battery in our '06 and it fit just like the stock battery. Very easy swap. Plus I like the warranty that Costco has.

Since Costco switched to using Interstate batteries they no longer carry the battery that fits our cars.

Honda replacement batteries are not Panasonic.
