Those are convertible but I haven't gotten around to swapping them yet, I won't be running anything in the rear.

Okay so this will probably be my last post in this thread. My new build log will be SQish so get ready for some ear sex.

Re: Burkem_10's Awesome Build Log?
Well guys I'm at it again. Just bought a double-din touch screen HU and a new sub amp. I'll be starting a new build long soon and this one will be more SQ oriented.

Not this weekend lol, it's of my rebuild this summer. The second skin made a huuuge difference. The whole trunk lid is just solid.

So then when recharged the lead doesn't have a plate to cover, (IE it's not going to fill in any perforations in the plates, it'll just make the remaining sections of the plates thicker...potentially leading to internal shorts. Plus the lower internal surface area due to the damage will lead to a higher internal resistance).
Here's some info on how lead acid batteries work Battery Basics
Thanks for the knowledge but really I was asking how/where to get it load tested. It was very informative though. Thanks Jud!

Autozone might be able to do it. But interstate batteries definitely can do it for you. For free.

The batteries might be OK, but that was definitely a deep discharge, which is usually damaging.
I was surprised my car was still running honestly.
All computers turned off, it was tough getting home. 8.5v was scary.
