    Off the Wall Questions from one of the "electrically clueless:"

    If you put it in the ubiquitous, "cool, dry place," what would the "shelf life" on
    one of these be?

    What if I hooked it to a trickle charger?

    If you're getting at you're thinking of buying it as a spare... I'd say although I don't have an educated answer for you, I will say this period of time is more than likely measured in months, rather than years. Since your '08 is warrantied for 8 years/100k miles I'd say it isn't worth it. Now that's assuming that was what you were thinking. If not, please disregard. :)
