Starter Solenoid # PK52315 could be mounted in the engine compartment as long as it is far away from hot parts such as the exhaust manifold and motor in general. Usually off near the battery or along the firewall somewhere are out of the way places a solenoid could be placed. Ideally, though, having it more protected from heat and the elements is the way to go.
