At least it didn't blow up. Why can't you get a lid? Funds?

If this is the worst thing that happened in your life this week you're fortunate. Lots of other, more life altering things could have happened. Batteries and lids can be bought any time.

My POS stock AC De-CRAPo took a dump and leaked out battery acid and melted both my pos/neg cables. So not only did I HAVE to replace battery, I also had to replace both cables......and I had the flu at the time! lol

Peace,
Craig.

Damn that sucks. I'm glad my car didnt have the De-crapo when I got it. I'm also very grateful it did not blow up. I worked at an autozone about a year ago and this guy brought in a battery that blew a through the top of it.

Hell dude I just gave away a battery, but I'm 100 miles away so it really doesn't matter.
