I am thinking about some juice, I thought about putting it there in the spare tire area, but did you ever think about what would happen if you were to get hit in that quarter panel?

That is why there are safety blow down tubes installed. It's the blue tube that comes off the bottle. Plus it would have to get hit pretty hard to even have anything happen. I mean anything can happen but people have been installing them there for 20+ years and i have never heard of anything happen.

hey i saw a couple more pics on your cardomain how did you mount yours? it looks like you bent the bottle brackets to contour to the hump in between the seats.

It's been awhile since I installed it....but I didn't have to bend the brackets at all. They are just the NOS bottle brackets....unless the pressure from bolting them down formed them.....
