Trying to get one from Advance auto parts. Using their website or calling the store, they say that only the Optima shows up as fitting the 2003 Acura TL. I thought ours was Size 24 - but those dont come up as an exact fit. Anyone knows if the size 24 Autocraft Gold / Silver will fit my car?

They have a $40 off $100 coupon - so trying to get something around $60-$70. Wont be keeping the car for more than a year, so dont want to shell out $200 for an Optima.

Thanks

If you're just looking for a cheaper battery for the next year, the battery does not have to be an exact fit.
Make sure that the posts are oriented properly and get the largest size that will fit. Go to your local store and measure the actual battery.

Thanks. I ended up getting from Autozone (Duralast Gold). Had a $20 off coupon + $15 mail in rebate. Cost me $70 after the core exchange. It was a size 24 and showed up as exact fit on the website. Good to know that its mostly the "size" and nothing else major that matters. Thanks for the reply.

Yes you will find in life that size does matter. And quite often.
