Here you go. I've linked to them rather than putting them inline as they're on the big side:

Flap, showing where I put the filler. The gun style of filler goes on no prob. The other kind just goes on but you can only rotate the locking lever about half way unless you open the boot lid for clearance.

O/S engine bay. The vapouriser is mounted on stout ally bracket. This system has an ECU that controls the gas using a electronic valve based on the lamba probe signal. You can also see the backfire protection valve.

Pic 2

N/S engine bay. You can see the LPG pipes running along the chassis rail. The fixings must be no more than 60cm apart, and there's a few other stipulations about routing the pipes, all pretty obvious stuff. There's a second junction box for the various LPG system wires and connectors

Pic 3

N/S engine bay. This is where I mounted the LPG ECU.

Where did you mount the emulator and did you have any problem getting a suitable loom for the injectors due to being a flat 4 ?

I was sold an emulator and harness for the VW injectors with my kit. However I subsequently figured out I didn't need it and never fitted it. I just have a relay in the injectors ground line that's opened by the LPG ECU. The Digifant ECU doesn't seem to care.
