Have had this kit for a long while now. Glad to see it get a known vendors stamp of approval. I've been preaching it for a long time now but it tends to fall on deaf ears when its just an enthusiast praising the kit lol.

I'd recommend not mounting the compressor straight to the body of the car, only because of vibration. I mounted mine to a board I cut out using the bolt hole for the spare to hold it down, then used the accuair EXO mounts for the compressor. Even mounting to it straight to the board will cause less vibration than right to the body.

If you do that i'd suggest using some sort of rubber mounts to kill the vibration. Other than that, pretty straight forward, I tapped the fuel pump wire along side the passenger side kick panel for the 12v ignition. VERY VERY important this is connected to a 12v cranking ignition source.

Great job on the writeup. I was going to do one, but didn't think it would really be popular on this forum.

the alcantara is a little dirty but just figured i'd throw this in there to show another setup.
