Where’s a good spot to put a remote oil filter in a Ghia? Pics would be awesome. The exhaust on the car now is causing a room issue under the drivers rear quarter. I have another exhaust it’s a bit smaller tubes. I’m running my heater boxes so I’m not sure that even matters performance wise. Here’s a couple of pics. Tried to get some help on the Ghia section but didn’t have much luck.

I have CB Maxi2 on both my VWs, with heater boxes and aftermarket header. I did have to grind down the cover a tad on both so the tin wouldn't rub on the pulley.

Is there room for it in the engine compartment?

Eyeballing your photos I wonder if that location might work with a 4 ¼" spin on filter (this is 6 ¼")
