I've got mine on my strut brace near the battery.

Bought the strut brace from another member on here.

Struggling with this myself as think it looks terrible where ever I put it.

I was hoping to fit it behind the scuttle panel but ColeySt200 fitted his there and suffered a missfire due to interferance from something..

Any more pics or idea's guys

Mine is where original coil was,



Leads are wrapped in spiral wrap under manifold to stop them rubbing on anything
