Default C5 nitrous feed line routing

'Bout time I finish off my nitrous install.... What's the best/easiest route to get the feed line from the trunk on a C5 vert to the engine compartment...any pics?
Thx!

No pics, but I'd run it down the passenger side in the vehicle and up through the firewall. You'll need to take the battery out and the kick panel in the car out, but there should be a flat area that you will need to drill a hole for the feed line. This is where I've seen most run the lines.

I ran mine down out my trunk & down through the passenger rocker (hollow all the way through, just had to remove the wheel liners)

I ran mine inside the car under the plastic beside the passenger seat, popped the wire grommet out of the firewall and ran the line and all related wiring through there.

Is it common practice to run Nitrous lines on the inside of the car?

Good question. We didn't. Ran in under the car on the passenger side and used coated fuel line "attachers" with self-tapping screws to keep it up. Have never had a problem and I like it being outside of the car. Don't know if it would ever make a difference.

I would prefer the line to be inside the car vs under the car where it could possible fall/sag/hang or hit something and damage the line.

Did mine as per mcshocks..... Remove front and rear wheel well liners, from the truck down along inside the rocker and into the engine compartment.... Easy, no issues, not inside the passenger compartment

I routed mine alongside the fuel lines above the torque tube.
