Battery Help

Long story short, civic battery is going on its last leg. I went to costco to buy a optima red top but didnt know which model of red top to buy. I have read alot of the fourms about the red top battery saying this one fits but was unable to find a part number for the red top battery that everyone says will fit in a 2001 civic. Please let me know. Cause I need a new battery =)

I;d like to know what deep cycle batteries will fit good in the factory battery tray. I'm upgrading my system to 1000watts RMS and I figured I would get a new battery.

I feel like being safe than sorry and not take a chance of my killing the factory battery in a week, even though some previous posts mention they haven't had problems..

True but I got no idea where an audio shop actually is in my area. Plus I'm not looking for something overly complicated. I'm just looking for something to drop in and fit the tray and connect the terminals. I can always bend/mold a battery tie down. to keeo it down.
