BSH Catch Tank Problems....

So who has successfully fitted one of these according to BSH's instructions which don't accommodate the 'charcoal cannister' nor access to the aircon taps without the BSH removal?
Mine was fitted today and we were far from happy with BSH's instructions for location - BS for Bull Sh!t quite frankly! So after much experimentation we decided a different location but one which will still allow every type of air intake to be accommodated except the Forge Twintercooler - Oh, and the ITG if the production version has that 'wall'.
^ BSH have totally ignored the fact that GTI's outside the U S of A have a 'charcoal box' and they have also ignored the fact that occasionally a VW mechanic will need access to the aircon taps. When you assemble it with pipes and bracket it simply won't fit the space satisfactorily.
^ We also improved it by changing the fixing to Allen key plus nut - This will make it much easier to undo the Bull Sh!t Holder's CatchCan's retaining strap.
^ That connection on the right was difficult to seat properly in the extreme - Literally finger ripping!

....Simple : -
1 - To add useful information to stokeballoon's thread on the subject of alternative locations.
2 - As a separate thread to bring helpful information to others who are about to try to install this according to BSH's instructions. Leaving my post only in stokeballoon's thread would most likely bury it.
SteveP:
Fine, I will remove your post from the other thread as it is pointless if it is going to get buried anyway.
