is the battery relocated to the trunk? if so you need to check your grounding spot. my buddy had a similar issue and that was his problem.

if you wish to solve your own electrical issues I suggest it…

voltage of disconnected battery?  
voltage at terminals when running?  
is your ground/power cables clean and secure to the the alt.?

Start the car, take a terminal off the battery while it’s running. If it dies you alternator isn’t charging which is what I suspect.

That’s the best place to start, post up when you have a result.
