Has anyone had any luck fitting a battery larger than our standard size 51/500 CCA? I live in a very cold area and she struggles to start when it gets below 10. I cant find a 51 with more than 500 CCA, so I am wondering if anyone has been able to fit something larger, maybe a 35 with 640 CCA into our car without any modifications?

Never had a problem with any of my civics starting at -30*C (-22*F) how old is the battery? Maybe optima makes one with more CCAs?
