I would personally suggest that you just replace the entire battery with
a salvage 40 kWh battery from a newer Leaf and a CanBridge to make it
work. [People on the internet are ALMOST to the point where they can
re-program the BMS inside a Leaf battery to work with a different car
not even needing the canbridge.]
I trust a used pack from Nissan a bit more than a new pack from Vivne.
(Although it LOOKS good....but only comes with a 2 year warranty).

My 2016 LEAF is down to about 40 miles ... in warm weather. I'll very soon
need a replacement.
I watched the video. It looks straight forward.
I'm wondering is there are any west coast shop installing these?
If not, it seems like something I can do. My main concern is dropping and
reinstalling the module.
Do you know of anyone in the US that has personally installed these units?

I just came across this video which shows the detailed step to step tutorial
on how to assemble a 50kWh battery module kit from VIVNE, very detailed.
