Does anyone have a good idea of where to mount my bottle? I'd like to hide it somewhere but still have it easy to get at.. I was thinking behind the rear seat but between the trunk wall and the rear seats, where the convertible top motor is..

Does anyone have any ideas for an easy place to mount it? Right now it's just lying in my trunk which doesn't sound too safe.

Do you want access to it while your driving?? Like at a stop light, were you can open it up?? or just easy access to it???

Click to expand...

There isn't any room when the top goes down.

Unless you are talking about two itty bitty Vin Diesel style bottles, mounted on each side of the CV Motor...

i've seen a really nice install on a notch back. they had the bottle sideways. so the top and bottom of the bottle were facing to the left and right of the car. and then there was a false wall built in the trunk. so the bottle was sandwiched between the rear seat delete and the false wall. at first glance when the trunk was open it looked like an empty trunk. the false wall was even on a slight angle so it look like the back of the seat delete. add a remote switch and you got some stealth, of course some hiding of under hood plumbing would make it complete.

just a suggestion

i have to try and find pics of it.

bottle placement is critical to the performance of your nitrous system it is important to understand how the bottle valve and siphon tube are assembled with your brand of bottle to properly install the bottle...in my case compucar's bottles siphon tube and valve is located in a position where its required for best performance that the bottle be mounted with label facing up and valve pointing toward front of the car...contact the maker of your bottle and they will advise you on the best info. on mounting the bottle...
