I'm mounting mine between the back seats, but you can also mount it in the trunk or in the spare tire well.

Here's a pic of my last car. I'd recommend using the carbon fiber bottle brackets for their ease of use when removing the bottle. Just go to Home Depot and pick up some 2" aluminum stock for making brackets to mount the NOS brackets to. And also use 9/16" for all your bolts (the -4 nitrous hose-end is the same size).
This location also makes it real easy to turn the bottle on/off.

Aren't the bottles supposed to be at an angle? My local shop wouldn't install mine like that. Just curious, if not then I am definetly going back in and redoing it that way. Thanks.
