The converter/charger is mounted to the floor, behind the circuit breaker panel. The breaker panel is easy to remove - 4 Phillips head screws. The breaker panel is behind the left floor level wood panel under the wardrobe.
What about taking the time to upgrade to a better model? The stock one works but if you need to replace it, you may want to upgrade to a beefier system that would be better with a solar system. Just my .02

You're spot on. That's exactly what I want to do and am hoping it's a simple DIY project to swap the stock converter and 2 AGM batteries with a lithium-able converter and 2 lithiums. Not looking to have to redo any wiring, etc.
You will have to watch the wire gauge and fuse sizes for the converter and battery leads if the new converter has higher charge capacity as they generally will for Lithium ready converters. Don't just upsize the fuses, they are there to protect the cables. If the fuses are too small, in all likelihood the cables are also.
