Battery Frustration

I was trying to be proactive, and replace the battery on my 09 135i convertible before I got stranded. Dealer quoted me $635 including reprogramming! Yippeedoo~he will put me in a free loaner lol! Advance auto will install one with 700+ cca for $160, but doesn't know a thing about reprogramming,and from what I've read that will mess up my alternator. I think I will put in an order for a 235, lease it w scheduled maintenance and warranty, and hope the battery lasts that long.
