I just got MINE working this weekend too.
The alternator went out on my DD (my 4-door Kick), so I robbed the Gnewt, to fix the DD. When I put the new alternator in the Gnewt, the Optima Red-Top battery had given up the ghost! Well I got a free replacement (thank God for 3-year replacement warranty!), and finally got the new Red-Top installed on Saturday, and went wheeling in the snow!!!
