Re: battery swap (SJLJ)
SJLJ,
Just put Battery Replacement 86, and 98 (88) Battery Removal - HOW? to the top (ttt).
See those two threads before changing your battery, take your time. It's real easy the second or third time.

Re: battery swap (_freakmonkeydogboy_)
For safety sake remove the negative (black) cable first. Since the car has negative ground, your wrench will not arc if it touches metal while you are disconnecting the negative cable. Different story disconnecting the positive (red) wire first.
The first step in most repair manuals is to disconnect the battery. An arc with a positive lead or starter cable can start a fire or cause a serious injury quite easily while you are working.
