im sure it will be a little smaller, (or maybe not) does it fit exactly like stock, stock connectors, etc? mounting??

Pepboys has the Bosch AGM batteries and you just get a group 49 like other folks said. Nothing special. It's the same size as the standard battery and pretty much weighs the same. Note that the battery size changed in 2013 (and possibly for the 2012.5 cars). So if you have car a after that year the size is different. If you search my username you'll find my thread on replacing the battery in my 2013.
