Either way, i mounted the controller to the amp tables on the left of the trunk. I grounded that and the pump to the chassis near there. I tapped ignition from the rear tail light bundle (gray+yellow). I may find a better source on second install. The solenoid and pump are screwed into the plastic tub but I may glue them to my new one.

The vacuum hoses underneath were fed through a brand new hole I made. I followed the exterior lines of the tub and drilled holes in the ribs for the zip ties. Next go around I'm probably going to feed the hose through the holes. Either practice gives you plenty of room from any pinching heat shields.
Can you list the pump you used? For future reference and for others.

Looks good. Glad to hear your jack slipping didn't result in a worse situation!
Thanks, same here. Added the pump I used based off an old thread I found. Think Redd is still around, appreciate the post.
