nitrous bottle mounting options?
i'm installing the bottle next week and trying to make up my mind where i want it, i either want to mount it sideways on the back hump above the gas tank or mount it facing forward on the back seat while folded down, with the nozzle almost between the two front seats. any idea guys? any pictures of your installs?

The bottles are supposed to be mounted front to back just as the car travels. This is so the pickup tube inside can be immersed during acceleration.
I removed the rear passenger side seat (fbody). I'm able to open the valve on the fly. Here's my crude install.

You have to twist the bottle slightly so the pickup tube faces slightly to the rear of the car. It works perfectly.
I have the glass in the hatch tinted with limo tint so you can't see the bottle from outside the car.

i ran the line under the seat mounting bracket so they would be protected if anyone actually sat back there. there was already a grommet in the floor that i took the line through. form there i ran it with some lines that were protected by heat shielding all the way to the engine bay.
and its wet.
