Take it to Interstate Battery. If you must do it yourself make sure you keep power to the battery with a battery charger during the swap. Interstate Battery does sell the replacement battery for the Carreras.

Take your boss' car and his credit card to the nearest Porsche dealer. it's a win/win. You do what your boss wants and it gets done right.

Or,

Buy a new battery that fits the car. Take out the old one. Put in the new one. If you're going to do it yourself you should know that the battery is in the front comparment, not in the back with the motor.

PepBoys sells a Bosch that is a direct fit replacement.

Or if you're in the local area my girlfriend could help install it if you'd like haha jk jk but seriously you can take it to just about any auto parts store for a replacement and I don't think anyone's mentioned this but I'm almost positive they'd help you put it in right there in front of the store free of charge

Walmart or Autozone will have the battery at a reasonable price and install it for free.
