Default So, changing a battery is EZ!!!

And my Bose stereo didn't go into the safe mode! Is it because my car is 98.5 and they didn't do radio coding back then? Also, what is the little plastic hose that's connected to the battery?

Your dealer may have not coded it either, but who knows...

Default The plastic hose is to drain the corrosion...

and keep it from collecting around the terminals
