Default How did you mount your bottle?

Pictures a plus but not required, im thinking of trying to make a mount I can put up agains the rear seat wall (a bit under the strut tower bar).

Im not looking for the stealth setup, and would like to try and keep the spare.

Anyway, throw out some ideas, and show me your mounts (steel, wood, custom, anything!)

Thanks!

I'm going to mount my polished bottle on my rear cross bar of my cusco roll cage. We can get the roll bar billet mounts from NX, and team those up with a pair of roll bar mounts in various diameters for a variety of cages/bars. When my car gets out of the body shop, i'll install and take pics. I'm running it for a custom intercooler sprayer setup that i'm going to custom make.

Yea im having a hard time figuring out a way to mount my two bottles without building some heavy setup. I guess I just have to lose the spare. I was hoping to keep it, but oh well.

I would like to know what you guys mounted to in the back. Both pics look real nice!

I made an "L" bracket to fit under the carpet and drilled 4 holes in it 2 on the side that attached to the car and 2 on the top holding down the bottle.

here is my temp. spot, i will be moving it soon because of the way the tube sits in the bottle, it is best to have the valve aimed forward with the **** aimed up or have the bottle sitting straight up. i just mounted mine this way to see if it would work there and been working too much to even have time to do anything, i didnt have a remote bottle opener and could easily reach my bottle this way...

I like that audiblemayhem, but I need to come up with something for both bottles. I had thought about at each end up against the back like that. Now im looking at right under the strut tower bar, up against the back. Probably something on hinges so I can still reach the spare. I be working on some measurements and maybe a mock up this weekend.

I have remote bottle openers also, so I might go all the way to the back on each side of the spare, weld in a small sub frame over the tools, and that pice of foam on the drivers side.

Anyway, when I figure something out ill be sure to post the end results!
