Second, are they venting them through the floor or through the sie  of the

Mine is from a group purchase back in  the late 90's. We all pretty much
stuck them under the rear bench seat and  ran the gas line through the back
of the cabinets' then trough the bench  seat. Since then I have seen some
clever installs where they were put in  small cubby to the left of the
fridge. I have also seen a custom box made  for behind the passenger seat
(Benny Boys').  Also, some have routed  the gas line under the van instead of
through the cabinets which looks  cleaner. If I had to do it again I'd put it
in the cubby next to the  fridge. Putting it under the bench seat means I've
lost that much storage.  Now I have no space under the seat, I have a
non-functioning AC unit taking  up what would be a cool rear overhead cabinet
and I just installed a  GoWesty seatbelt on the drivers side rear seat which
means the belt running  through it renders half that cabinet useless.  I
still have that  plastic tray running along the roofline though.  Sigh...
