leaking? doesnt that mean your alternator is overcharging the battery making it leak? and if it's really that much of a problem.. 3 replaced batterys = 1 dry cell (optima, odyssey, etc) .

dry cell might be your best bet if anything. might be a tad overkill for the stock motor.. but hey.. you can leave your lights on for show
