Default How much space required for 10lb bottle?

I'm looking to locate my bottle in the trunk where the t-top mounts are. I would like to hide the bottle for law enforcement reasons lol and am planning on installing a subthump T-Top box in there. now what i need to know is the bottle mounted most likely NX or NOS will fit underneath the box in the "pit". I plan to run an electric bottle opener in order to open this as well...

Please let me know anyone who might have a suimilar setup or hs seen it done. I believe subthump says that there is about 9" of clearance underneath the box.

Let me know if y'all can.

Thanks
Adam aka Jr

I would just throw it where the spare tire is, better location and you can still have a place for the t-tops, I know my top holder get tons of action.

yeah i second that you should put it in the spare tire well, i put mine there and if you do a search for "where to mount my bottle i have some pics of what it looks like with it mounted on the 860 mount. it will also make it easier to run your line and vent your blow down tube cause you have that rubber gromet you can use. just my opoin thought. hope that helps some
