Depends how it's held in. Is it a double ended bolt screwed into a rivnut in which case try unwinding it with a couple of nuts locked together on the thread. Alternatively a decent angle grinder or disc cutter will make short work of it. Steve.

Has anyone any further insight to this topic? I too am running into an interference with this post as I am installing a dual battery tray and I would rather not use the dremel on it in our communal garage if possible... Roaming around 🇳🇴🇨ðŸ‡

10 points for finding this thread
I left it in as my tray was high enough https://www.kraxlr.de/makingof.html#electrics But I think it should be a quick job with a dremel or a hacksaw blade. |

I think it is a flathead stud electrowelded to the panel. It's cutter time!

while we're in the area, any idea why there is a moulded plastic plate under the seatbox/battery box protecting.... nothing? Roaming around 🇳🇴🇨ðŸ‡

This question has come up before and the best guess is an attempt at sound proofing, as it seems to be missing on base models. Darren
