Icon2 Battery Replacement / Relocation Help

My battery is dying in my car. If I leave my stereo on and try to start the car there isn't enough juice to do it. The car will start when the stereo is turned off but not when it is turned on. So, I am thinking I need a replacement battery.

My question is what is a good choice for a replacement battery? I was thinking Optima Yellow Top or Red Top for the extra juice to run my stereo. But they are really big batteries and don't fit in the engine bay.

So, what do you guys recommend? Is there an easy way to relocate the batter to the trunk? Should I choose a different battery? Please, help me out with some advice.

I have a 15" sub running at 750rms and components that run at 300rms. When i have the radio on it it drains alot of juice so i decided to add a battery. I put an optima yellow top in the rear and have a stock battery up front. You dont want a yellow top under the hood cuz those are deep cycles and arent designed for constant charging. They will wear out quickly, and one single red top just isnt enough. To add a battery is REALLY easy also. If you interested in running this setup, lemme know and ill toss some pics up and show you how.
