Externally mounted pumps are far more likely to leak or get damaged by the road than this application will. Great job my man!
I'd have to disagree with this one. Boats are designed to venilate the fuel/motor areas. Also, our batteries are in the trunk. You're right...there are no vapors unless there is a leak...and there is no spark unless the battery cable comes loose. I'd keep the the pump outside.
