I replaced mine but the sos fault kept coming back. It turned out I had a fault on the Ariel got it replaced under warranty sorted.

Was it easy to remove the trim panel between the seats?

Yes, it just unclips, do one corner at a time. I only know because I previously thread my android auto cable behind it to the netted pouch.

Unclips and then lifts up (as I realised when I tried to refit it!). Just a Torx bit to undo the battery holder (can't remember the size, sorry) and then unplug, swap over the battery, replug and refit.
