No prob at all dude
I've always thought about making my rear defrost button into something useful (like a purge).. I don't use the defrost because I don't want to ever have any bubbles forming under my tint or anything.. Here's a couple last pics, showing the solenoid installed with everything else in place, and also the button under the pedal (which at the angle its at looks all screwed up)

rear seat delete boxes with hatches, say what!? i'll have the msd 6a and timing controller mounted there along with 2 computer fans per delete.

to control each fan speed independently, this will be mounted in center console



man am i stimulating this economy


very rough sketch

the sail panel fans will pull the air out. then i will mount a fan towards the front to push air over the msd boxes. either one of those corners, not positive which one will work best but probably towards the trans hump angled slightly towards the sail panel. i'll post pics when i do it

I have everything hidden...not many pics pics, sorry.

- Bottle w/ opener in Spare Tire Area
- Wires and Feed Line run under the carpet, under the center console, through the firewall by the steering shaft, and connected to the Solenoid.
- Fuel Solenoid is run off of a connector on the back of my fuel rails and is positioned on top of the A/C unit under the cowl.
- Solenoid to Nozzle Lines are run down the Fuel Rails, to the nozzle under the Intake Tube (MAF delete).
- Lean Shut Down Switch and Timing Tuner are located in the center console w/ wires run every which way.
- Arming, Heater, Opener, and Purge Buttons are in the ashtray. Activation button is on the shifter.


Purge Lines are the only give away:

it is not too hidden and not much to look at, but i've got a HSW dry plate with black fittings/lines and a concealed solenoid. bottle is mounted between the seats with a jacket over it. switch panel is in the ashtray and i have a pressure gauge squeezed between the drivers seat and the center console.

i'm not trying to hide anything from anyone that knows what they're looking at, but just wanting to avoid the attention of everyone else.

i recently got pulled over by a not-so-pleasant motorcycle cop and i had the top down. he was looking around a bit without popping the hood (checking tires, exhaust, etc) and was just 3 feet from the bottle and didn't seem to notice anything.

here's a few thumbnailed links...

switch panel in ashtray - lift the ashtray lid...

underhood dry plate setup - the solenoid, lines, plate are all pictured.

dryplate closeup - as dirt builds up, the black fittings/lines will blend in nicely.

my old camaro, same setup except it doesn't look as suspicious now.
