Battery Removal ???

This is more than likely going to be one of the most frustrating things about my car, and the thing is, it shouldn't be.

So the car is 5 years old, its really cold out, and the battery decided to take a crap. Not a big deal I'm telling myself, that is until I try to remove the old battery. It won't come out. Granted its cold and snowy out, but it can't be frozen in there...

Someone please, don't tell me I have to get under the car to remove some bracket so that the battery will slide on out; but I'm sure, that is going to be the case.

Any thoughts? I don't have the proper tools to do that where I'm living at the moment (apartment), so I can't do it myself as if I was at my house. If I have to tow it, to replace a battery, I'm going to be p***ed. Someone help!!

I was waiting for someone to mention that! Guess there is a first time for everything.

No worries - no new battery tray - just a quick trip to Wal-Mart to get the 6" extension that I don't, but now do, have in my current place of residence and she's running fine. Thanks everyone!
