Installing the .service files should be the least of your worries. I would first start with actually creating a replacement .service file. And for that, I would start investigating, what parts of the sysv init script are actually still necessary today and if they can probably be replaced by different mechanism, like say replacing the kernel module loading with a module-load.d snippet [1]. The remaining part of the sysv init script afaic is then the ordered shutdown of running vbox instances. This functionality could possibly move into a separate shell script which you would simply call on shutdown.
