I paid some $320 for them because the only ones I could find are the original Panasonic lead acid batteries from the dealer. None of the parts stores sell batteries that will fit my car.

Lithium would be nice, but I live where it gets way below zero in the winter, so that would freeze and ruin the lithium batteries unless I got lithium titanate batteries, which would be more expensive and lower voltage.
