Only the p500 has that structure.
Thanks for clearing up the question on other models, edited thread as a FYI for P500 cross talk.

Bottoms battery box bolt worked as it should. Top one stripped and had to really work to get out. For top I now use heavy duty plastic ties....so far so good, and much easier to change out if need be.

I’m with ya...had to remove entire box to fix...ended up putting in a strong plastic tie....still on 2 years later....went through deer camp and southern mud & glud no problems. Now, just snip it off and R&R when getting into battery box. Faster than messing with bolts/nuts/screws....bottom bolt ok

Yep, I would check that first if I ever buy another one. I remember, I ran completely out of cuss words and had to start repeating myself, and that does not happen too often.:mad:
