[ausev] Battery Swap in the MR2

[Mark Farver]

Its late notice but I finally managed to get the Exide Orbitals to 
replace the dead Optimas in the MR2.  I will be swapping batteries and 
trying to figure out the Air Conditioning install this weekend.  Feel 
free to give me a call if you're interested in stopping by and lending a 
hand.

The front and rear packs should be pretty easy, its just a matter of 
moving the SuperStrut mounting frames around... the mid pack will be a 
lot more work since it is contained in a box, and we have to get 4 more 
batteries installed somewhere.

I think the AC is just a matter of deciding on belt driven or direct 
coupling.. and machining a coupling or finding a v belt pulley.
