I have a R31 fuel tank out back so have plenty of room for it where the original tank was. Still haven't mounted it up yet though.
There should be room on the passenger side behind the cab if you are still running a standard fuel tank.

smurf_11 is using one of those tiny racing batteries

Looks like it is mounted right behind the passenger compartment, under the tray. But he's got custom frame reinforcements and mounted it to those.
