Rob: if you look properly the bottom vacume pipe is pussing the bottle to the right making the bottle unable to fit in the threads attatch to the bulkhead or rise the bottle to the bulk head.

cant move the bottle right or left becouse of the battery and inlet.

Mine is the same. I cable tied it to the brake lines with a bit of sponge wrapped around. Not ideal but Im relocating the battery to the boot then the bottle can go in its place

plus you might want to change the hose pipe. I used it on mine a first but found the pipe collapses with the heat of the engine
