The battery is pretty common - go to a battery store or any hardware store.

And FYI, even if the battery is dead, you can still use your car. Hold the key fob next to the start button for a couple seconds, then press the start button.

You should keep it in your trunk with the medicine kit or the tool kit, so you don't have to bother with prying open the door handle.

If you're in SoCal, you probably have a Fry's Electronics near you. I got it there for around a buck.
