Default Blow down tube with bottle under back seat?

I have my bottle mounted underneath my back seat. I didn't think it through and now I can think for the life of me how to do my blowdown tube. Its under the passenger side part of the backseat.

Just curious what everyone else did or if anyone has an input.

That's what I originally thought of doing, but the problem is that the blowdown tube is too tall and hits the seat. I have about 3" of room to work with under there.

I plan on going to the track once in a while, and I'd prefer to do things at least semi-correctly.
