Default N20 bottle mounting?
This may be a dumb question, but has anyone mounted their bottle in such a fashion as to not drill holes on the car and make the bottle mounting hardware easily removable?

I had a buddy that mounted his to a big board that was covered in carpet and just put it in the back. The board was so big that it never moved. Good luck.

I have my bottle mounted to a board parallel behind the drivers seat, it never moves an inch!

Can't help ya with a stealthy install. Although I've read of putting a bottle in the spare tire area. I didn't have the patience for such a stealthy install so I went the opposite.

Through bolted with lock nuts and very large and hardy washers.

I had thought about the big board idea - I like it covered with carpet. Thanks for the ideas.
