I have seen it done at ls1.com. Do a search.
Why put two bottles up there when one big one would fit in the trunk?Hot Cammed LT1 Sleeper -

There's probably an inch or so of spacing between that board and the gas tank. Ask Min what he did cause that's where he mounted his bottles. That's where I want to do mine too.---<br />-\'95 3.4L M5 CamaroComment

That set up (mounting the bottles there) is by far the most intimidating thing to see when you pull up behind the person :D
I hope this link works:

I know this is not exactly what you wanted but it is a nice idea

Ok then thats that. I am going to mount two bottles in that spot. I think that would look nice and its not too far out of reach. What would a cop do if he seen those when he pulled me over?Comment

I do have my bottle mounted on the back shelf area. There is about 1 inch between the bottom and the gas tank. Just be very carefull when you drill holes. I cut the ends off the screws so the would be flat and hit flush against the gas tank and not puncture a hole in it. It does look very intimidating. I haven't mounted my 2nd bottle yet, still waiting for another set of brackets and the stuff connect them to arrive.
Yes if a cop pulls you he will see the bottles very easily unless you have like 5% tint.

yeah, i have mine mounted there, its on the flap, like tiago said, the only problem ive had is when i get on the brakes, the bottles sometimes fly forward and land in the back seat :( i fixed that by velcroing the flap to the car. if you put the bottles there, you can just reach back and open the bottles too.
i have some pics here :

I am about to get mine and I was gonna install it where my spare tire was. Do you have to get some special brackets to mountit there. I also wanted to run the blow down tube right behind the rear tire as well. Anybody done this?
