Hi Cherry, Why not do it yourself. Make sure the new battery is mounted securely. Have a couple of appropriately rated cables made up or do them yourself and connect. Make sure the batteries are of the same rating, for example 100 amp/ hour 12v. To my knowledge if the batteries are inside the vehicle you cant use led acid batteries because of the gas they vent. I have used two 110 amp/ hour agm batteries as they are completely sealed and can be installed upside down if necessary and can never leak. Hope this helps.

Seems the others have covered the auto elects, my question would be why are you adding the extra battery, most likely your running running out of power but keep in mind you need to be able to charge the extra battery so make sure the charging system is up to it.
