Arrow 15# bottle mounting

Has anyone tried to mount a Nitrous Express 15# bottle with bottle opener in the spare tire well? Looking to purchase soon and would like the 15# bottle if it fits...

IT simply will not work. It is just too damn big.

It can be done, including a NX Opener. You won't be able to do it if you try to keep the factory specified Mounting angle. You'll need to tilt the bottle more. no one said it didn't take some ingenuity

I had some pictures of this awhile back but can't find em at the moment.

This is for a Hardtop, I dunno on a Vert like Rich's.......

It also fits fine in a T-top car. It looks like I'll have room for a bottle opener as well.

got a response on the nos with bottle opener he said it worked on a hard top but was tight. He ended up going with the 10 lbs bottle. But i guess it worked. Like the previous post suggested the bottle will not fit if you intended to have the best bottle angle. But i like haveing t-tops so i'm keeping mine in the spare well.
