you're gonna have to get creative with the wiring. i did a whole thread on my relocation and chop of the rear end and accomplished it with help of many on these boards. i also added an 1/8 inch of metal all the way around the batt. cover and repainted. however, had i got more creative with the wiring prior to adding the metal i'm positive i could have made it fit.
