I usually pull the wheel off and access it through the panel that sheilds it. Lossen the holeder and pull the calbes and it slides out okay...for a foolish location.

to remove the battery take off the left (drivers side) tire. then remover the battery cover/splash shield from the wheel well by turning the four plastic fasterners 1/4 turn counterclockwise. disconnect the negative battery cable first then the postive. remove the bolt and nut securing the battery strap and hold down bracket then remove them. if has weather package options disconnect the blanket heater electrical connector. install in reverse order
