If I'm visualizing this correctly the two original batteries are in between this area right? So the distance from one of these new battery boxes to the closest original battery would be shorter than the distance to the other new battery box, correct? Maybe only 2 feet for example?
If that is true, then the best way to connect would be to pair up each new box with the closest original box.
If your current batteries are less than a year old and in very good condition you could keep them paired and move one to the nearest new box, then put two new batteries of the same size and brand in the other pair of boxes. Otherwise four new batteries are the way to go because weaker batteries will decrease the life of the new.
