Put the bottle behind one of the seats, valve facing forward. Then put your t-tops in on the other side, both tops facing forward(longways front to back) They will fit behind the seats longways but its close. If you put them in the vinyl bags, it will help keep from scratching the seat backs.

hmm i may be able to do that. the previous owner installed a double woofer box in the back so i never knew how much room there is. i don't even use it, so i'll take it out. thanks!
