Ideas/Pics on where to mount Squash FP Regulator?

Just wondering if any of you have some pics on where and how you mounted your fuel pressure regulator for the return style Squash fuel system. I'm having trouble getting it creatively mounted somewhere at the moment.
Currently just installing this fuel system in my spare time in the evenings.

Help me out please!

Brad

EDIT: Added pic of where I mounted mine.

You are only limited by your imagination. Mine is on the firewall on the passenger side. I have seen FPRs mounted directly off one rail, on the strut tower (drivers side) etc. I am on my phone or I would post a pic. There are some in my album though.

It is the purple and blue thing.

So is it screwed in with self tapping screws or did you open the cabin filter box and bolt it in with nuts? I thought that felt like plastic to me, I will investigate further... Thanks!

Made a small L shaped bracket and sandwiched in filter box using nits and bolts. 2 bolts go through bracket and firewall and nuts on inside. Very simple.

This is where mine was installed. It may look hard to see but if you need more pics, let me know. In the pic it's to the left of the strut tower brace.

I'm guessing that its bolted to a coil mount bolt? Looks good.

Mount it off the front of one of the fuel rails.
