Change the battery. It's stuck.

Hey guys I'm in the process of changing my battery.

All the nuts are removed but the battery wont come out!

I think maybe it's the Grey thing on the right retaining it but I have no idea out to get it out of the way..

Any ideas?

It's the part number 3-4..

Hex screw with collar M6/ 26,5MM. How to removed this shit bleh

Sorry I can't help but what size battery did you get? Autozone lists H6, H7, H8 AGM. What is the OE replacement?

I'm not following your post. #3 is screw with a 10mm head holding down the bracket 4. Remove that screw, remove that bracket, and it will lift out.

Depends on what is in the car currently, they are not all the same. And many sizes will fit (I even think you can get an H9 in there). Pop the cover up take a peek at the sticker to see what you have.

This was the best match to my factory battery, and cheap too:

Group 49R (H8), dropped right in. Same AH (80) and RC (140) as my stock battery, but 100 more CCA (900 vs. 800, although the Amazon pic shows 800, the newer version of the battery you will get is rated at 900).
