Cut off the leads of the old one, desolder remaining leads, solder in new batteries.

They are still made - even with solder leads: http://www.slotsmachineparts.com/product_info.php?products_id=34

These were an excellent way to handle the Mac II battery issue, unfortunately it sounds like they are all gone now.

I checked a spare parts drawer and found one bare and one populated board that I was saving for when I got more Mac II's.  I'd prefer to keep them, but if tt doesn't have any more, send me a pm.
