First the things you'll need for this:
T30 driver to unscrew the mirrors
A flathead wrapped in masking tape to pry the door off and unscrew the cover for the battery in the trunk
A small socket to unscrew the battery connection
A plastic bag to hold the battery terminal

The two circled area are where the 2 screws are located that need to be loosened. You can then pull it away using the little opening on the bottom of it.

Use the socket wrench to disconnect the terminal. Make sure to not drop the nut or bolt down into the area next to the battery.
