The firewall??? That is the metal that seperates the engine compartment from the passenger compartment. If you are having trouble locating this DO NOT install N.O.S. YOURSELF!

are you mounting the bottle in the trunk? You are going to have to drill some metal either way you look at it so I would look for places that aren't going to be affected by water etc. You will definetly need some rubber grommets to prevent fraying of wires hoses through the shhet metal. If someone else has done this I wonder if they ran everything through a stock location? so you won't have to hack away at the car....

I had a performance shop installed a wet kit for my previous car and they ran the NOS line under the car to the trunk.
