switching battery locations

I have a small prob that I can't figure out, well at least not w/o an electrical mod that I don't want to do. My car's battery is on the left (in front of car view) I need it to be on the right due to when I changed my hood my intake wouldn't work so I'm having to move my battery to get the intake off of a 90 rs to fit. Now the canister and cruise unit are in the way of this and as greedy as it might sound I'd like to keep both on the car and usable and I don't feel comfortable w/ putting my battery in the trunk also the radiator hoses are in the way as well am I gonna have to purchase the whole front end off this rs or what?

I suggest making a custom cold air intake out of like pvc or something, maybe that will work. It seems like less work then to flip-flop battery and canistor locations. I think it would be easier to change one thing than a whole bunch of things.

that was the route that I tried first but it wasn't going too well either, if I could figure out how to keep my cruise fuctional I'd be fine w/ moving the canister and battery
