1) remove rear seat
2) if power rear seat, isolate battery earth (remove plate on front of seat well int front of battery), disconnect earth from frame but PULL IT OUT and then charge across that wire as the -ve and the jumpstart post under the hood as the +ve

I **THINK** that should be safe - assumes battery has no other earth return. If in doubt / neurotic pull all the fuses too...

Does anyone know how I can get to the battery when it's dead? I can't put the car on the charger cause their is something wrong in the electrical system. Does anyone have any Ideas?
