(looks like a AAA size but much smaller.I did pop into a bike dealers in Goole when I was passing last year and when they finally found one it was "HOW MUCH !!!"So, anybody on here got any idea where I can get a replacement battery without going into double figures thanks in advance Quote
Guest Posted January 26, 2009 Posted January 26, 2009 Try Motor World - I got one for my car fob, and it worked again, but only for about a week so I'm back to manual now. Quote

Stu Posted January 26, 2009 Posted January 26, 2009 Rosie try any car shop like peeps have said not halfrauds though or try Hi tech in bransholme centre North point shopping centre they are pretty good and reasonably priced Quote
Guest Posted January 26, 2009 Posted January 26, 2009 Tesco, Sainsbury, Morrisons etc. usually have a battery stand.The Clifford I have fitted to the Land Rover uses the same - my last one came from Morrisons. About £3-£4 for a Duracell one I think.My fob on the bike uses a CR2032. Of which there is a spare in the toolkit under the seat, just in case. Horness Quote
Rosie Posted January 26, 2009 Author Posted January 26, 2009 looked at all the ones in supermarkets and twice come home with the wrong one Local cameras shop - no luck.Looks like I need to venture further afield Quote
