Here is the minimum part list to get the tank working
So Including the tank I got at the petco $1 per gallon sale just the basic tank was about $80. I think you could do It for around $60 though because I mostly bought items that were amazon prime over some Items that were the cheaper option.
View: facing towards the trunk with the rear seat removed
2003 Mustang Convertible has the typical leak around the rear glass that ends withe the water pooling in that leather-vinyl pouch behind the rear seat. Rather than replace the top, I decided I'd just stop the issue of the water pooling there, for now. I used a flexseal-like rubber coating on that pouch to make sure it would hold the water and wouldn't seep. Then I cut a hole in the middle and used a 1/2 inch bulkhead fitting to create a drain, and routed some silicone hose out of a factory hole in the passenger side of the trunk, water ends up just behind the rear axle.
If done again I'd probably put the drain on one side or both and use black rubber instead of clear because clear dries whitish. Some water still sits above the fitting but at least it stops water from ending up on the amps or under the rear seat.

I didn't use one of the pieces of the fitting, only the bulkhead and the elbow
