Have a look in the Maintenance Guides where there is a whole section devoted to LPG installation.

On both (3ltr / 3.2) cars i've done, the vaporiser was bolted to the inside of the off side wing were the cruise control actuator would be. Just make sure the pipework is well clipped up and kept away from the exhaust manifold   
The ecu on both of mine bolts to the chassis between the wheel liner and the bumper on the off side.
That's if you have no self levelling pump there 
The wires come up underneath the airbox, get split into 2 looms.

One which gets secured to the cable tray across the front of the engine if its a v6 (permanent 12 volts, O volts go the battery.
The switched live, crank sensor pickup and 2 for the lambda sensors go into the ecu loom just before its box.
The injector looms get clipped half way across the front then up so you can split it between the 2 cylinder banks.

The second lays under the coolant bottle and works its way rearwards (dash controls / buzzer, ect )

If your stuck, give us a shout and i'll take some pictures and email them to you 
Never have worked out how to stick pictures on here

Not sure of the 2.6 cdx has the winter pack pump. If it has, remove it and site the vap there. If not that will make no sense at all, and there will be a space on the wing below the air box and coolant bottle. As said really.

Ecu, mine is bolted to the plastic wheel arch liner behind the fog light, partly due to self levelling, partly due to Easy installation. Poke the loom plug through the chassis holes under the head light, iirc, then attach the loom plug. Two drilled holes through the liner, bolted up. Job jobbed.
 Obviously though, the higher the better, so some bolt it in place of the self levelling pump on non elites, but that involves removing the bumper. No issues with mine where it is though, and its only 6 inches lower then the highest possible position in that area.

And received
2 emails on the way 
Just to add, the lpg injector brackets was made from a alloy handle insert of a wickes kitchen unit door.
I just cut to size and attacked them with a wire wheel on the end of my drill.

If you want to go down that route, I think I have some left somewhere
