stoney Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 I bought one the other week, about 50 notes from halfords, had it on the shelf. Bring on the sunshine :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueH Posted January 23, 2014 Author Share Posted January 23, 2014 Thanks for the responses, I have checked Halfords Web Site but could,nt find an 036 Battery, they did have an HB063 Halfords Brand Battery for £59.99, is this the correct battery,can anyone check & advise if this 063 is correct for a Herald or any other recommendations.ThanksNorm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clive Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 They were certainly stocking the 036 very recently.If you end up with an 063 buy one from eurocarparts, Bosch and much cheaper.You will also (probably) need longer j bolts for the battery clamp, cheap enough from motor accessory places, and the battery has the terminals at the rear away from the clamp, which is a good thing.

Pete Arnold Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 Norm,Have a look at Herald/Vitesse forum posts under subject of "battery replacement" and now available to view on 3rd page with last post dated 6th January 2014. You will find several pieces of advice including mine where I say :-"I bought mine from Battery Megastore in November - excellent service with free next day delivery.http://www.batterymegastore.co.ukI actually bought a 60A/H battery (their part ref: 56069), for which I had to make longer clamping rods, but sizewise it fits my Vitesse a treat.If you do buy from them enter this code at checkout for 5% discount - 3CD3F3EC5A"Good hunting!
