It would be hidden behind a panel that would have to be unscrewed in order to get to. It is NOT the well that you see when the hatch is lifted it is where the spare tire actually is but could not be if the bottle was there. It is the ONLY place that you would be able to hide a bottle, everywhere else it would be in plain site! I hope you understand what i'm saying and that I helped you.

I guess the tire well will be where it goes. Maybe I can make it look like one of those Bazooka tubes that are designed to look like Nos bottle but aren't.

Go find the thinest wood you can scrounge (balsa would be perfect, but I haven't found it in big enough sheets)
Build a box to fit the "trunk" well, and mount a couple 12" speaker grills on top. Bottle goes underneath.. then everyone can see your "system"
Or you can just go with my personal favorite... mount a bottle in plain site in the trunk well, with a dummy line. Hide your real stuff in the spare tire well. Now you can just show them the spray, and make a big show of disconnecting the line. Saves hiding stuff under the hood, also. You also have a spare bottle for those "ooops, ran out and got another race" times!

thats all fine and good until you **** off the wrong person because you raced them after you "disconnected" your juice, but then suddenly spank the crap out of them by a number of lengths. no, thats not suspicious at all.....

Just like the old song: Take the money and run!
If i ever run nitrous again i will have the two bottle setup but more for the police when they want me to pop the trunk (the cops in ND are the worst) so then they can see that the bottle is disconnected and can't do crap about it. If they found a connected bottle in the trunk they would haul you off to jail for attempted vehicular manslauter if there is such a thing

I took out my right rear passenger seat and mounted a piece of carpeted wood cut to fit, drilled 2 holes through it and secured it via 2 screws in a hole underneath where the seat used to be. There is also one of those plastic rubber inserts right below the carpet in the floorboard so the blowoff tube goes directly down. Iit looks pretty bad except for the fact the carpet's like white compared to the stock grey carpet. I should hopefully have some pics up tonight.
