It's really up to you where you want to install the manual inflation valve of the Firestone Coil-Rite Air Helper Springs part # F4101. It's wherever you decide would be the most convenient.
I've had similar setups on three of my cars and they were all in different locations. The first one was installed into the bottom of the rear bumper. The second car was in a plastic trim piece under the rear bumper and the third car I ran the valve to behind the gas flap.
I would go with a place thats out of plain sight, is away from hot or moving parts and will be convenient for you to access.
