Any pro tips on how to get to it before I start taking stuff apart?
Laying on your back with your head in the footbox looking up and your feet over the back of your passenger seat. Ensure you have diagonal cutters, ziptie and relay or whatever else you might need. As you know it's the middle relay of the three. You can certainly remove the seat to make it a wee bit easier but for me I'm too lazy to go that far.
Also, it's always good practice to disconnect/Isolate the battery from anything you're working on electrically.
