Default m939 Battery Relocation Kit

Hey guys this question has been churning in my head for a few months now. I bought a M939 Battery Relocation Kit for my M109A3 project. I'm going to mount it in the van for my battery bank. Anyways, I have never seen this particular kit on a 900 series 5 ton. Does anyone have a pic of where it actually goes in it's correct application? More of a curiosity more than anything else.
Here's what I'm talking about. Found it in the classifieds

It took a couple years. My persistence got turned up after I brought the 109 home. I gave him an offer that he finally didn't refuse -or- he just got tired of me asking about it

Go to google and type in "armored m923" and look at the first picture(well it was pic #1 for me) since the batteries are under the passengers side bench seat, they had to find a new place to put them when they put the armored cabs on. So that battery box replaces the tool box under the passengers side door. Its also a step so you can climb into the truck.

Thanks Derrick! Now I can finally put that question to rest. OK I thought maybe that kit went elsewhere.

ya, I've personally seen it on a few 5t trucks. pretty neat but you lose the tool box on the side of the truck which is why I haven't done it to mine and it seems to make it even harder to climb in the pax side as well.

Are there benefits to using the relocation kit on an unarmored M9xx truck?

I have one too to hold 2- 8D batteries for the HEMTT. I'm going to use them to power an inverter during displays such as Arlington Airshow. I also got a small enclosed military Diesel 28V generator to top up the batteries when noise isn't such an issue. During the evenings I can have some quiet power in our camp, and when the aircraft are flying, charge the batteries when needed.
