Maybe while your engine was trying to start, unburnt fuel was going into exhaust. Lambda sensor would have picked this up so the engine light came on.

Make sure the replacement has the same shaped posts as the battery in your car. (ie..the bits where the cables connect onto).
After removing cables from battery, I think there is a clamp securing the battery (on top). Just take this off and remove battery.
