    I am replacing my battery and I took off the one bolt that is holding a plastic piece which holds the battery in place but the thing still wont budge. There is obviously a second bolt holding it in place but I cant find it. Any help would be much appreciated.

    Thanks

    The bolt is made of gravity. Use your manhands.
    Irridium spark plugs last 100k mi and work just as well as copper. Copper is a waste on N/A and only lasts 15k mi. Don't use Platinum.
    Use 195* tstat unless you can thoroughly explain why not; 99.9% don't need a lower temp.
    Almost any oil filter, ever, is of higher quality than ACDelco. Spend $6+.

    you need to remove the bar that goes over the battery, take the bolt and plastic wedge off, then slide the battery forward there are clips on the back side of the battery tray that the plastic wedge holds the battery down. then lift it up and out. take the battery cables off first.
