The standard group 24 fits fine on all early Spridgets. (the ones with the smaller square heater box that is) Up thru 67. Do get the one with the posts towards the heater not towards the bulkhead. Th

Thanks, Frank, Crash, and Cap'n Bob. I think that I will try for the Group 51 (Honda Civic) as it is smaller and I think that is an asset if you ever have to remove it and your bonnet is on the Sprit

I hear this all the time, I never had a problem removing a battery from a Sprite. Just shoulder up the bonnet a bit more and out it comes. A helper to hold up the bonnet works even better ;) Oh yeah

A group 27 battery is much bigger than a group 24. I'm using a group 26, same thing I use in my '74 MGB, instead of the two 6 volts. Right now I've got a group 65 (a truly huge battery) in the '74 Mi

What group size battery for a Sprite? The idiots at Sears and Pep Boys can only look them up by make, model, and year, and of course Austin Healey isn't on their list. They can't just look up the dim

I wouldn't know that because I haven't been foolish enough to buy a battery from either of those establishments since Sears was stupid enough to break their contract with Interstate Batteries. Call

or is is series 24? But this only fits the early Spridgets up to whenever they made the heater different. Then you need a group 22 (I think) Now back to the 24 battery... originally they came with t

The "correct" size is either a group 26 or 27 (I think the difference is which side the terminals are on). Now when I had to get a battery in Front Royal (Skyline Drive) I went to a little country ba
