I once used a 'universal 34/78' once in a pinch. The posts are in the center of the battery, so you can switch ends. Measure your battery tray and the depth of the battery too. Gotta watch out because the posts sticks up. You may want to check out some of the recommended brands from Consumer's Report. Seems to me they highly recommended Cosco auto bat a while back. I have had some luck by feel. I think the important number for this car is the reserve amps, or some such termonology.
I just bought a MT-47 a couple of months ago. It replaced the MT-47 that had been on my '95CSE for 6yrs. I've got 5yrs on wife's Aero, so this has been a good battery for us and two pro shops that I've worked with. Mine cost around $90.
Yaofeng found an Interstate that was a bit bigger. Click on his name (more from yaofeng) to look back and see which model he picked up.
