If it`s going in the van don`t do it,i ordered 1 for my setup from Gardiners and made sure beforehand that it would go through the lid.

You can always fit a bigger lid.

Right well ive ordered one, the bloke i spoke to said these are recomended for baffled tanks and that i need to be aware that the ibc could collaps, mines in a cage so ill give it a go but those who are thinking of adding this to a van tank its not recommended.
