[W126 Coupe] MERCEDES BATTERY PRICES

[Satish Tummala]

Best price (and only place) for a Mercedes battery is from the Mercedes
dealer....$109 plus $5 core.  The Mercedes battery is simply a rebadged
Interstate MTP-93 Group 49 850CCA battery.

BTW, Mercedes uses Gel Cell batteries in the S55s, S600s etc.  They are
group 49 and are available for around $260.
