Default Anyone have pics or ideas of where to install a VAFC II into an ek?

As the topic says, I am looking for pics of a VAFC installed or at least some ideas of where to put it or what modifications i could do to make it a clean install. I did a search and saw one mounted by the rear view, but i would rather mount is somewhere lower.

TIA for any help you may provide

I don't feel like being an *** tonight and telling you to search so here: https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=476018

I like the one at the bottom of page 3.

And there's a lot more from where I found that. Hit the search button on the top right, select Archived Content, type in "vafc mount" in the search field, hit Next and voila!

***... I did search and didnt find what I was looking for and hoping to find maybe someone out there that has done another method besides removing their radio and A/C controls (this is my daily driver) looking more for a factory look install location and maybe relocating the A/C controls to the lower pocket behind the cup holders. Any body?

A friend of mine cut a hole in his dash (padded part on passenger side) and recessed it into there. Looks really good. Personally, I would just get rid of it unless you have tons of mods. VTEC is set right where it should be and Honda probably tunes it's cars a little rich for a reason. If you are going the FI route, you would probably be better off getting a standalone system. They seem like they are really affordable these days. Many people even make their own.
