12v Battery??

I need to replace the 12v Battery and would appreciate some suggestions. Is it worth sourcing via a dealer or other 3rd party supplier?

Hi, 

you can always start with the dealer and see what the price and availability are. Then compare other sellers like Halfords, carparts4less, Eurocarparts, aceparts, eBay, auto doc etc. if you about an aftermarket Battery best to measure yours physical sizes especially of it is a tight fit. , also check parameters are the same or very similar, good practice to stay near these figures, too small or too large batteries will die prematurely. 
That’s pretty much important steps and the choice of Battery it’s yours . 
Good luck 👍

To update, I tried 'reviving' the Battery on my Noco Smart Charger which has a repair mode but to no avail!

I ended up buying a Yuasa Battery from GSF in their Easter sale at £86.

All is now good again in my GT86 world (as it is also in my Corolla world)

But your details say you have a Yaris?

I am only asking as I have a GR86 and a Corolla!

The Corolla went last week replaced by a GR Yaris Circuit Pack.

I'm debating as to whether to Keep the GT86 or swap it for another interesting older vehicle, thoughts of a Lexus of some sort?
