"can't repair"????
How about looking in the phone book for a battery shop?  They sell and maintain batteries for industry or even vanagon owners.  I'm sure they can repair it or tell you how.   Do you think they throw away a $2,000 fork lift battery pack just because it has a tiny hole drilled in it??
Ask an expert.
