Theres a battery place opposite nong sam rong golf course,most battery places test old one and fit new one as part of the service,you should get 200/300 baht for your old one.

After the last couple of shops in Udon selling and fitting wrongly (physically) sized batteries in my sports lorry, I bought the correct one on lazada and fitted it myself.

On the west side I have used this shop twice in the past. Good job replacing a terminal in one case too.

The intersection is currently under construction but still accessible and I'm sure they could use the business.

Properly in heavy-duty, multiple layered, sealed packaging with plenty warning labels. Took 10 minutes to carve through that. They also used their own delivery service so it's possible that Kerry, Flash and the other regular shippers either don't handle these or they're chosen delivery service knows how to handle batteries.

Take it easy there DM. There's a lot of us guys that don't get out much, or at least not on their own or only with the permission from significant others to do their own thing (and that's usually limited to an accompanied trek around Central). We can't all be the dashing, gadfly, man-about-town you know.
