What do you guys think about putting the bottle here? I figure i can remove the front bracket and put the seat in if i so wish(havent had a passenger seat in about 6months.) I would really rather not put in the the trunk because thats where i want my battery. So what do you guys think? Yes, i will have a blow down tube.

I think it's lame. Put your passenger seat back in and put the bottle in the trunk. If you absolutely need to have everyone see your shiny purple bottle, make a mount for it where your back seat once was.

with these brackets it wont fit behind the seat. I thought about the mount but all the seat delets i see are not secure. They are just wedge in there. I forgot to mention this is not a daily driver its just my toy. The car would only sit like this at the track otherwise i will probibly be having my seat in.

Lol, his avatar is funny.

But I like the mounting on the rear seat delete idea a lot better, but do whatever you want, it's your car, whatever is more comfortable for you.

It's your car.

Personally I would mount it in the trunk. I don't want people to get an idea about breaking into my car just cause they see some fancy stuff on the inside. Having a bottle that visible is like leaving your wallet on the dash. Some A-hole is gonna see it and try taking it cause it will be worth something to some other A-hole with a Civic. If you want people to see it that bad mount it on your hood as mentioned above, or get two 5 lb bottles and mount them in place of your head rests.

Just my .02 which isn't even worth that much to you. :grin:

the bottle will only be in the car when the car is at the track, So all they might see is the brackets when the car is just sitting. And those are not cheetos they are the caps off my a/c lines.

hell, leave it as it is.. You asked for opinions, but yet all your responses sound like you are already dead-set on leaving the bottle there,
(even if just temp.) All i know is yeah having the bottle there is convient to reach over and open it up, but if that bottle were to ever explode,
instead of ripping your trunk area out, it's going to make a splatter painting with you.... Plus if you had it in your trunk, you could keep it
connected on the street, and have someone to ride shotgun that weighs more than 10lbs.

If you like it then great, It gave me the idea to do a duel bottle set up on the rear seat delete! I think it would look sick to look in a car and see two bottles one one each side of the back of the car.
