It's in the passenger's footwell behind the carpet, bolted down through the floor (bolts accessible from under the car), ECU sits on top of the battery, be careful not to let anything metal touch the battery terminals.

The battery chapter can be downloaded from www.tvrbooks.co.uk. It's the Griff sample chapter.

Just for reference, be sure to mark where the battery box is located before you slide it out.

Its difficult to line it back up when you put it back otherwise. Marking the positioning of the box will help when you push it back and want to put the bolts back into place under the car.
