Default mounting nos Bottles? In Trucks.

Were you guys mounting your nos Bottles? In your Trucks.
In the bed? In the cab? Under the hood?

In the bed with a cover over the bed with remote bottle opener. It is always better to mount it on the passenger side to help distibute weight with single driver, plus the passenger side wheel usually is the one to spin first and it'll add a little more weight to hold that wheel down betetr.

Same here, I have two bottles mounted right behind the cab on the passenger side of my bed.

I have a step side with my bottle mounted under the passenger side step. There is ALOT of room under the bed to mount bottle(s). Im thinking of getting rid of the 10lbs and getting a BIG 35lbs

On my old lightning I bought a Craftsman tool box for under $50 (they sell a long one that'll hold a 10 lb bottle). I bolted the tool box to the bed, and put the bottle inside with a remote opener. The box I bought had a latch for a padlock so no one would mess with the tank- best of all cops dont see a nitrous bottle if you get pulled over.
