I have to give the rental car back tomorrow so today was the big day. Between putting all of the pieces back into place and getting everything tightened up I was very busy. When I grabbed the battery to put it back in the car, I noticed that it was cracked and had leaked some battery acid. I went to Pep Boys (where I originally got the battery) to get a new one. I took it to the parts counter and joked that it was still under warrantee, but I don't think that being cracked in a car accident was covered. Short story, I got the battery for free. Woo hoo! I did have to make a bracket to hold one side the battery, but I had everything I needed to do it.
