Well, not that this will do you any good, but i put mine on one of the bottom 2 holes on my license plate on my 97. I'm not sure where you would mount it on a 2000. Unless you rigged it up by the gas cap some where, i've seen breather tubes routed up there before.
Happy trails!!

By the gas cap would be awesome! THink of the looks you would get when you pull in to use the air at a gas station and you open your fuel door and put an air hose in there!

Inside the Jack storage area
I have a 98 Sport so I don't know what your cargo area looks like, but I have a jack storage area on the driver's side. It basically gives you access to the whole inside of the quarter panel. I mounted mine directly above where the gas filler tube runs...i have a 2door and don't know how yours would be. I just remove the access panel and there's my air valve! It lloks as new as the day I installed it.
I also ran the plastic air lines through some rubber hose to keep it from getting cut or chafed by rubbing on something. Get a large enough size hose so you can fish it through so it won't be too hard. Believe it or not...I breathed into the tube to make condensation so the line would slide through easier. Sounds strange but it worked (along with some WD-40)!
Hope that helps!
