When the 49 died in my 300sd (bad climate control solenoid wouldn't go into park and shut off) I put an old group 34/71 dual terminal Exide in it. Eventually the glow relay indicated trouble about a year later (glow light wouldn't stay on). I put a new group 49 in it and the glow light started behaving normally again. I think the problem had more to do with the age of the little battery than its size, it was about ten years old when I put it in the SD. Mitch.
