Any recommendations for a replacement battery for my 2016 500? It does have aftermarket electronic power steering, and added lights.

Below is what I have - is that the factory battery?

Must the replacement be a GYZ16H?

Thanks for your help!

That is an OEM. You don’t have to stick with YUASA but if you got 8 years out of one…why wouldn’t you? IMHO

Lucky you got a kind answer😂
There are A LOT of threads on batteries here on what to change, what brands and so forth if you want to venture to something else?
But like mentioned, 8 yrs is remarkable! Why go different? 🤔
Like saying, i had 4yrs with good economy with Trump, lets vote for Brandon! How did that turn out? 😂

It may die tomorrow, but I'm still on the original in my 2016. I haven't looked at the price, but when it does go I'll probably go back with the OEM. Hopefully they are still made the same.

Ever think this might be why people block you? Or the reason people point out you’re being rude …. which I am doing now.
