Default Calling Fuelpak owners

So I recently picked up a fuelpak for my softail custom, downloaded the map, programmed it and then came to realize, there's no place to put it. I'm using the HD solo seat and theres no room under it like there would be with the stock seat. What have others on here done to relocate it to somewhere out of the way?

It's tight...but it sits on top of my ecm. the seat will go on and that's all that matters. Now my old Sportster was another story. I had to mount it on the side and it velcro'd to the battery (or something in that compartment). You can even run it down under the seat and velcro it behind it. FuelPak works great though. Easy to install (unless you have no room), easy to program and I haven't had any issues on any of my bikes in 3 years now.

I have a Fatboy and it was a very tight fit under the stock seat but it fits great under my LaPera Silhouette. I guess it depends on the design of the seat pan. Experiment and I'm sure you'll find a good place for it.
