Default Comptech Icebox install

Ok I've seen icebox's on EGs before so I know it goes in there somehow. Has anyone ever done the install? I'm trying to figure out how to make this work but I'm having trouble. Any help would be appreciated.

I was using the Comptech arm and box from a 99Si on my poor mans ITR. I just had to move the radiator overflow tank off to the side. It was a tight fit overall, but it went in there.

No, sorry. It was in there for about a year, but I never took any pics of my car during that time. If you can find an old pic of vtecvoodoo's car, he also had one installed in his EG, that's where I got the idea.

Yeah, that's his old car.

Here's a recent pic of his old car, now owned by "Illwill". I believe Wil is using the ITR version on his.

Mine squeezed in well enough, I didn't need brackets, it wasn't going anywhere.
