Battery replacement questions

Long story short battery finally went in 2009 maxima. Thinking of calling AAA since they will do it for 110 bucks since I'm a member and they come to the house replace it take the old one away. Now price aside, has anyone used them to replace in our maxima? Is the battery abnormally difficult to replace? I'm not interesting in two trips to the local shop to pick it up and do it myself it's too busy a weekend but I wanted to see if this was ok way to go about it.

It's not a difficult job at all. I took the one out of the Maxima down to Wall Mart, put it in a shopping cart, went inside and got the exact size Interstate battery I needed, turned in the old one for core credit, drove home and installed it. Not counting Wall Mart time the job only took 5 minutes.

went to local auto parts store, got the 2009 maxima compatible battery, a good one from what I've read, paid $110 for it out the door, installed in a few mins, prob 10 mins to get the old one out, 10 mins to install the new one. Done for a good 4-5 years now.

^ Yep, one wrench will do the job in and out in about 5-10 minutes.
