Drysump Tank location? Where is yours?

I am debating where to put drysump tank, but i would prefer it near engine, and i have spare tire (allthough 996 one) and normal fuel tank on my 1300 std beetle.

Where is your tank? I'v seen that most put it under front hood or under rear window to inside cabin, but my painter did not recommend, because if the car is involved in a collision, inside mounted tank's hoses may get torn apart possibly..

I'v been thinking put it near transaxle or above to under rear window. There is little room at near transaxle because there is 5-bar coilover support, but custom tank could work. I have now this tank from demontweeks:
