Damn, thats where my cruise control doover sits.
I have one of those thumper batteries which I am going to tie down in one of the rear passenger footwells (dont usually have rear passengers)

If it doesn't have ABS then just fit it on the other side, mirrored from the Std position

My XL-7 has the cruise mounted there as well, but I've seen the cruise mounted on the other side in front of the ABS module.
Personally I reckon that battery won't have a long life because it will get very warm being so close to the exhaust manifold.
For me (with the XL-7) I can mount a battery under the middle row seats.
But I haven't got around to doing anything like that yet.
