It doesn't look like you can open it to test the SG.

I'd love a new TT, but there is a financial reason I got a used
one.
It only had 35,300 miles on it. The previous owner lived very
close to her work, and I suspect that the car suffered from a lot
of very short trips. Not long enough to fully charge the
battery, and after a year of this the battery is just worn out.
I have it on a charger right now, which will allow me to start it
in the morning and get it home from my . . . well, let us just
say I don't spend all of my nights at home.
Can one get a new battery from Les Schwab or similar, or is it a
dealer only part?
