Battery tray
Hi all,
Can somebody advise me how to remove the batt tray in my C5, please? I see there are 4 bolts on the bottom "throat" part that goes down, into the lower engine area. Are those all that's holding it in there? I had a red top leak a little bit of acid and I want to remove the tray and check things over. I think I found it/stopped it quickly enough to not have any damage down below, but just wanna check things out. Thanks for any help.

Get some baking soda and flush well underneath
Had leaking battery that disintegrated the vacuum line to the HVAC. Also leaked to the BCM underneath. Mix up at least a gallon of warm baking soda and water and apply to everything, wire harnesses metal fender support etc. Flush and dry and repaint any metal that had the paint eaten off. I used winshield wiper hose to connect to not ruined parts of the vacuum lines. There are 2 of them in the middle if the harnesses coming from engine and going into cabin thru firewall.
Have fun.
