There are spare hose clips under the car so it's easy to rout. If I remember correctly, I was able to rout the hoses behind the rear bumper and into the trunk area without drilling. I positioned the pump and hydraulic fluid reservoir box (a little taller than a shoebox) under the drivers side taillight. There's a small lip there so I attached a small bracket under the box to keep it from sliding out. It has never moved or bounced out.

The control button was trickier. I bought a new center console plate that has three mounting holes for the switches. I also bought a spare button. I took it apart and cleaned off the black finish. I laid in my design over the white plastic surface and painted it black again. The design glows white with the lights on. When activated, the red light flickers. When fully raised, the red light glows steady. There was a lot of trial and error on wiring the connector.

I installed the system around 2012. It has never given me any problems and the fluid has never needed topping off.

Good luck if you plan to do this.
