Where have you fitted yours, BEC boys.

I'm thinking near the front, but still within the bonnet area.

I'd just position it so the pipe runs are at a minimum really. One thing to make sure though is to position it so that if it ever blows a pipe
off, it doesn't direct boiling hot water anywhere near the footwell!

Id suggest rubber mounting it because Ive had one alu tank crack at the welds where the mounts are welded to the main body, and the way the mounting
plates in the original post is welded then bent back isn't ideal to discourage that I wouldnt think.
