I had mine mounted between the front seats and had no console, now I have a console so when I put nitrous back on my truck I'm going to either mount the bottle behind the drivers seat or in the bed (if I go ahead and get a bed cover) my main issue is that I have a 15# bottle.

behind the pass seat.
i have dual 10" speaker box that takes up space behind my drivers seat and center console. i can reach over and open the valve from my drivers seat when i want to.

I made a plate to mount it behind the passengers seat. Its sitting at the proper 45* angle, is close enough to easily reach from the drivers seat, and is mostly hidden

I have mine mounted inside center console cause my speakerbox takes all the space behind the seats. Pics on a thread under Nitrous Oxide Section.

there shouldn't be any problems.
all you have to do is make sure the end of the siphon tube is pointing to the rear of the truck.
