LOL yes... its the vacum canister... stores vacum so your dash vents work... just remount it anyplace just make sure the hose is still hooked up... it can be mounted in any position....

Remount it
Position the black egg under the passenger seat. Between the heat from you TB and the exhaust helping to keep the floor warm; this assists in the hatching
Alternatly how about on the eng. bay firewall close to the heater fan.
