The original issue VW/AUDI auxiliary battery in my '85 Westy Wolfsburg
Weekender is shot.  Guys at the local battery stores laughed at me when I
asked for a deep cycle to fit.  After listening to my tale of woe a friend
(how good a friend may depend on how this works out) offered to trade some
services for one, possibly two, Sears Diehard Marine Deep Cycle 110 a/h
batteries.  They're new and un-used since they won't fit his bass boat.  Can
one or both of these be used for the auxiliary battery?  I know they're not
going to fit in the box under the drivers seat so I'm thinking of mounting
them under the rear facing jump seat a few inches back.  Anybody care to
offer opinions on 1) the best way to rig hold downs, 2) modifications to the
existing wiring (for a single installation and a double), 3) modifications to
the vent?  Any web sites out there tat could help?  Mechanically I'm pretty
good but electrically I get tripped up over words a little more complex than
plus, minus and ground.

Thanks
Chuck
