Okay., Battery has died in my mk2. so swapping the new battery from my mk3 into it.
One Problem.. my mk2 battery doesnt want to budge.. its like its glued in. is there a bolt that im not seeing??
ive cut my hand countless time off the inside arches lol


reminds me off changing a lightbulb in the mk3.. the batterty was in the way.
Thanks anyways

uh ? awkward ? probably one of the easiest simplest there is :)


front lower edge there's a 13mm bolt in a clamp half way along holding it into the tray

back edge is slotted in to a lip so once bolt/clamps out luift front slide forward slightly and lift :)

i've used some push fit connectors either side on mine so if i need the shelf out it takes all of 2 sec to unplug and pull it

worth taping/fixing em flush to the board too or you'll be cursing when ya rip em off putting the shopping in the boot - been there :)
