With the seat in this position I'm able to access the 4 screws holding the battery door and remove/install the battery if necessary. -Mark On Thu, May 4, 2017 at 9:58 AM, Stephen Edwards <chibicyclist@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi all, > > I’m looking at a swivel mount from Eurocampers.com < > http://eurocampers.com/> but am surprised to find that once installed, it > prevents the user from removing… the battery.
