Feeling like an idiot, but I can't figure out how to get to the battery. Did a search and didn't find anything. Maybe it's too obvious to everyone else. Does any one have a quick narrative or some DIY pics?

Just curious, is the battery covered under the 50k warranty? Mine's about to expire in 1500 miles and I'm compiling a to do list for the SA.

Thanks all. Found it in the DIY section as well. Completely forgot about that section.
