No pics but it should be installed right out of the master cylinder before the distribution block
on the line for the front brakes.

I install all of mine either under the driver seat (on the bottom side of the floor pan) or in the driver side fender well.

?? you ran the brake lines all the way under the driver's seat and then back to the front wheels? Maybe I am misunderstanding?

All the way.....yes, to clean up the engine bay on a car I had. I stole the idea from another car that I bought from someone. You act like its a long distance. Its about 28 inches. Now subtract the approximately 14 inches from the factory master cylinder to the factory proportioning valve from the 28 inches.

I guess it isn't that far but then you have lines running there and back. I guess it would look cleaner but didn't the solenoid get beat up hanging from the floor pan? Maybe this was a track only car?

Here's where I put mine. The pictures aren't the greatest but maybe you can see it a bit. The reason for the red zip ties on shifter is the line loc switch vibrates like crazy and that was the only way I could get it to stop. Anyone have a better idea?

It was a daily driven car and nothing was beat up. It got dirty but the ones I've installed in the fender well get dirty too.

Looks like the shifter handle is too narrow. I've used that Hurst button on many cars and never had any vibration issues with it.
