Hi Jeff,

Thanks for responding and the Vanquish battery thread. Maybe I'm not pulling hard enough. I will give another try tomorrow.

There is a Torx 30 bolt at the outward back of the seat cushion that requires removing the seat cushion. Access via the seat back lower trim.

This is awesome, cheers Jeff.

I will add, I completed a battery swap a few months ago. I have a volante. I made the mistake of giving myself a brief panic by attempting to close the top (I figured working in the rear seat with the roof down would make it easier, and it did!). The roof however would only get about halfway before failing.

The reason? simple - I did not reset the windows... Once I reset the windows, the roof worked perfectly. In hindsight, the roof most likely won't operate until it knows where the windows are! I'm not the brightest perhaps.

Seat stuck

Thanks for sharing that! I just swapped out my battery on my 14 Vanquish and the passenger seat that I had moved all the way forward to access the battery would not slide back. I found a video on Youtube showing how to reset your
seats similar to a window reset. I reversed the incline all the way back and held for 2 seconds, and then all the way forward and held for 2 seconds and the seat worked fine. Good to know if my top has issues to first check the windows.
