I had to do this, the battery is located in the left wheel behind the wheel cover. I have also found that most places will do this with an extra fee.
If it is a convertible, it's easy.

The battery is under the left front fender.

Remove the negative battery cable.

Loosen the lugs nuts about 2 full turns (front left wheel).

Lift the left front corner, using an appropriate floor jack or bottle jack. The best place to lift is either the frame pad behind the front left wheel inside the body weld (see Owners Manual), or lift the A-arm directly, as far outboard as possible.

Remove the wheel.

The battery is under the front left fender. There are two nuts holding the battery bracket in place. Remove the two nuts.

Then remove the battery cables from the battery. Then slide the battery out.

Put the new one in, fasten the cables, install the bracket, put the wheel on, and hand tighten the nuts.

Let the car down, then finish tightening the lug nuts.

Attach the negative battery cable.

You're done.

It will take a couple days for the computer to "re-learn" the engine, so performance might be a little loose for a couple days or so.
