Taking out the battery? Hi, I just parked my GXP for the winter, and I tried to take out the battery and the damn thing is wedged in there, so I put it back in....there is no room in there at all.....So I went to the dealership and the guy said if your battery is fully charged up it should be fine when I start the car in the spring time, it my just need a boost.....but what about if I put a battery blanket around the battery, should that be okay?
Thanks

Battery blanket?
There are two, different ones, the first type, is a true blanket, its not plugged in, thus only provides a -/+12 volt supply of juice!! But the other supplies a +12 volt supply. It will supply a positive charge up to 12 volts! untill it runs out.

LOL!! Aw man! I just recently had soooo much fun trying to yank my battery out!! This was one of the most interesting experiences with a car to date. I unhooked a couple of wires from their clamps in the surrounding area. I unhooked the fuse box(just unscrewed those top screws) so it could lift & have a little more play in it. & it still seem impossible to do but I had a helper lift on the fuse box & I tilted the battery towads the fuse box & lift it up out of there but trust me it much easier said than done. took about a hour(or more) to figure out!! Its rediculous how the manufactures don't want us touching anything!!
