Welcome Ross!

Your mods sounds awesome, I'd love to see them.

Hi All,

Thanks for the welcome!

@Koos Best: The water Tank is one of the Pioneer Plastic tanks, and is installed behind my back seat....basically between the back seat and the drawer system. Because of the slope of the back seats you end up with an area between the seats and the drawer system that is the perfect size for the tank...I bought the tank that has the slight wedge shape so contours to the slope of the back seats.
