Perhaps in the back cavity between the seat and fold-down cover in the rear. Did the job for a 5th of rum, so maybe just smaller bottles.

I dont have pic of my set-up, but I installed the top shot kit. Everything is hidden by the air cleaner and bottle is hidden behind dash since there is no heater box.

I was thinking of cutting out part of a junk lower back seat and having the tops of the rear seats fold down on top of it.

It's only an inch or two. What's the big deal?

I went to high school with a guy who had a really quick shortbed pickup. He mounted his bottle in the bed, hollowed out a bale of hay and covered it with that. What was funny is he went to a sticker shop and had a PRO FARM sticker made that he put in the corner of his window.

Sounds like it would be sideways mounted like that. Did you ever have problems getting a good flow without the valve facing the front of the car? straw sucking vapor i guess you would call it? I may put mine there if not...

I had to hide my beer bottle between the seat and the door when my buddy got pulled over.

no, one bracket is on the trans tunnel and one on the floor, so flow is good! feed line goes under the console.

Im thinking of moving it to under the dash soon..

I did it.

After finally coming to terms w/ the fact that I had to run it to win a grudge race, That black and white Zephyr had a 10lb. bottle (old skinny style) hanging under the dash.

Course the heater was gone, and I had to be cognizant of the "clocking" of the bottle to get the siphon tube down and back.

The solenoids were under there as well w/ both feed lines covered in rubber hose.

Granted, the length the nitrous had to travel was about 14" after leaving the solenoid, and was less than optimal ( as was the bottle orientation).
Despite all of the wrong application stuff though, that car ran 6.90's vs/ the 7.80's n/a.

Now I wasn't thinking about "what happens if", (and If I wanted to again, that's where it'd be) but back then, It was zackly what I needed to get the job done.

One of those smaller sizes would fit in the spare tire well.

What about hiding one in a subwoofer, like oldfox says?

Hide it in a fake speaker box in the trunk.
