hard to get at the battery to lift it out. which is the easiest way and best for the car.
there is an arm above the car that seams to be a frame stablizer or the fuse box which looks touchy

remove the strut rod. 3 13mm bolts

unbolt the fuse box and move it up a little

undo the cables and hold down. then the battery has to turn 90 degrees to come up
