House battery replacement EB50 layout

Hi all--we need to replace our house battery that is housed underneath the seat in the back. Is there a trick to replacing it without removing the pivoting bench? Doesn't appear to be a way but wanted to make sure first. Searches are coming up empty. Thank you!

Totally wrong question that was relayed incorrectly from my husband, but don't know how to delete. Disregard!

How do you get to the battery on the EB50 when you want to replace it?

I've removed the back rest bolster, slid the bed all the way out.Legs down! and accessed the battery that way. My back rest is only held by turn buttons on straps.

Pretty easy to remove the back bench seat bottom. Lift it up part way and you'll see 2 nuts on each side (4 total) toward the back holding the seat to the folding frame. Remove them and the seat bottom will lift out. At least that's how mine is.

But then my house batteries are mounted outside under the side doors and forward of the spare tire so maybe seat removal info is not what you need.

Ours is under the seat, slightly tucked under the pantry and there is some wood that boxes it in.
