mine is a pretty tight squeeze in that vacinity of the car so i just kinda wedge it in near the fan relays. Probably would be better to make a nice lil bracket, but if you want it to just hang make sure its secure between something so it doesnt stress the hoses to pop off.

Hey Dude, yeah thats how mine is "mounted" right now. I would fabricate a bracket, but I dont' have the resources to make anything like that.

I mounted mine by the fans relays. You can see it in the pic, on the passenger side. It is zip tied in place. It's been there for about 3 years, with no problems.

Both of my MBC's are bolted onto the empty part of that relay bracket in front of the passenger strut tower.
