Default mounting bottle in spare tire spot

I was just wondering if anyone had a kit to easily mount the bottle in the spare tire well, or if you can just mount the bottle or what the deal is. Also is there a certain angle that is optimal for bottle mounting, or just that the top is higher than the bottom with the discharge pointed down? Thanks. -Corey

I know a few sponsers here sell a kit. Try Nitro Dave. I just built a wood platform covered it in auto carpet banded it to the fender usind the bolts in that area and mounted the bottle on that with the rings that came with my kit. Here is a pic the angle is a little weird but the front is higher than the back and it looks pretty good.

This is one that we sell and it makes for a clean install. The placement of the bottle needs to be about 45* to be optimum.

that looks nice, with that what does it mount to? Will I drill holes or does that plate mount to something back there already? Thanks.

You have to drill two holes in the body of the car.

Hope this helps.

Nice, I take it you used the adj. billet holder then? A little expensive, but a very nice looking piece. I think I am going to end up going with the one from nitro daves, or attempting to build my own.

I just installed the 860 Performance bracket mounting plate this last week, and it looks great. Very easy to install and comes with instructions. I bought it from Nitro Dave's.

Do you mind posting a pic of it without a bottle installed. I want to see how this mounts in.
