A couple of meters of pipe and fit it in a corner oe a-pillar pod which you can pick up from ebay.
If the car is an MY99/00 there is a spare take-off on the inlet jusy infront of the throttle that is capped off with a rubber cap. Just remove this and plug your hose on.

Got a 60mm Greddy pillar pod for a classic if you're interested and about 3metres of black silicon hose, all you need is a 60mm gauge.
