Default first u need to remove both cables going to the terminals, then iirc there's bracket holding the
base of the battery down. that is held in by one bolt. unscrew or loosen that and your battery will come out.

Default If you slide the battery out of the way you should be able to reach under the metal bracket
that it sits on. Try using a magnet to get the screw back out.

Default Passenger side of the battery there will be a bolt and metal plate
that lock the battery down. Remove that bolt and slide the battery toward the passenger side.
