well you could hide it in the spare tire well, but that the most looked place if people suspect you have the bottle in the car.

Other than gutting your dash and fabbing up some brackets and hiding it under there... Stick to the fuse story...

another vote for gutting the dash. with the dash hollow, you can pull the CD player and the opening is JUST RIGHT to slide a 10 pounder in....... not that i was thinking about it

I would just put it on the driver side and pull that speaker in the very back. You may have enough room behind the glove with a little relocating. In the rear bumper cover after supports pulled.

Not sure what you mean "fuse is blown" ? I'm guessing popping the hatch but how did they see it behind the interior panel? Unless you go and look in the spare tire well, which means turning the body panel screws and popping the panel off you can not detect it. ? I'm cornfused. OR are you saying it has to be totally hidden from anyone looking for it in a place like the spare tire well.? I'm about to find a place to put a 4.25# propane tank

Default n2o hidden spot

I agree with the sub box idea. Have it so the box can be unscrewed at the top and then hide the screw locations with carpet. Just put a tiny slit in the carpet so that the screws can be accessed. If your looking to keep the car light just buy some really old cheap subs and remove everything from the subs other than the part that is visible without opening the sub box they will become purely looks but they wont weigh much.

could put one under the headlights on a firebird, just don't put up the lights. maybe one where the t-top storage is, with a panel over the whole area. how long will a motorcycle bottle last on a 100 shot? those are really small, might even fit in the glove box. also, you could put a really skinny bottle in the inside of the back of the passenger seat
