is there any way to make a mounting plate to mount the bottle in the spare tire well??? pics??? or is it just worth the 45$ investment to buy one pre made??

 

I Made My From Two 7 In. Spacers And Bolts, You Just Put The Spacers Between The Mounting Plate And The Car. Its Only Like $5 At Ace.sorry No Pics.

 

I bought some strips of metal from Home Depot and connected them from where my jack went to the lip where the antenna is. Then put the bottle brackets onto those. I don't have a pic of mine, but I think I have some similar pics from others. Let me see.....

Found it - mind kinda looks like this

 

I used the brackets/mounts that came with the kit,with a little adapting it fits in the wheel well quite nicely

 

I used the stock brackets. I mounted them on the side.

 

I custom build the 15Lbs mounts. Go to 860 for anice bolt in for 10Lbs mounts

 

The bracket Dave sells works with 10 and 15lb bottles. He has some pics of 15lb bottles installed, and there are some pics posted somewhere. I'll see if I can find them.

860 Performance with a 10 lb bottle. I got mine through Nitrous Outlet.

 

I have installed them with both 10 and 15 Lbs bottles. They are prefect for 10 Lbs bottles but the 15s are a very tight squeeze We tried NX ,CF and NOS bottle brackets and the valve always wanted to hit the wheel well

VERY nice product. that is why I mentioned it

 

What brackets should one use with the 860 mounting plate?

 

On the 15lb bottles you will need to space up the front bracket so that the valve clears the fender well.

i just used a street sign that i found cut it in half and bought some L brackets from a local hardware store and then just drilled the holes and mounted it. best thing about the street sign is that its forged aluminum and weighs damn near nothing.

 

I used 1 inch square aluminum tubing about 1 1/2 long to raise the front of the 15 pound bottle to get the opener to fit with the 860 bracket

 

made my own with steel, but then again you can buy one too, personally I like to spend money on things that can not be made easily. Pics in my sig under nitrous
