    Help: Provent catch can installation

    Hi, how do I drop the drain hose down to the between inner guard and wheel arch like in the youtube screenshot? I installed my catch-can exactly like in the second picture. I simply do not have a suitable line of sight from the engine bay to drop the drain tube. I am also afraid the tube might touch on something really hot. Help please?

    I ended up running mine under the air box.
    I dont have to get under the car to drain it. Normally the end of the hose rolls up and sits behind the headlight.

        I did exactly the same for my Provent. It is a bit fiddly to drain but that is not too much trouble for the benefits.

          I temporarily dropped the hose down and is currently tucked behind the metal sheet guard (stock bash plate?). I thought the hose will need to be vertical to drain oil?

            It will drain quicker if it goes strait down. On mine i spent a bit of time ensuring the hose is angled so the oil wont have to flow "uphill" when the car is on level ground. Nose down on my driveway also removes any concerns about lack of drainage.
