Switch for ARB compressor
I am looking to mount and arb compressor under the passenger seat but I don’t want to modify the dash in any way to install the switch. Do you guys have any solutions to keep the dash looking stock?
Thanks

That daystar above, or an a-pillar mount probably best/cheapest options if you don't have a sPOD or similar knock off. I use mine for just OBA, and originally mounted switch right in the plastic molding that runs along the passenger door sill (not the b-pillar) right where it starts to curve up to meet the b-pillar molding. Wish I had just run to my sPOD to begin with, cuz now I have a cut hole in that plastic I have to cover up with a sticker 
I left the switch there for a bit, and it was ok for function, but there's less room for clearance under that plastic than I originally thought....so the switch never sat perfectly.

Tim.Barr, what did you use to mount your compressor? That looks tucked up there extraordinarily high. I wish I had just used that little bracket the first time instead of mounting in the plastic molding....but now I have fire extinguishers there so better that the switch is now just on my sPOD.

I used the Teraflex ARB twin compressor bracket. Teraflex

Dang, I don't recall that one being around......did they copy Carolina Metal Masters, or has the TF bracket been around for a long time? Is this the one time TF ripped off someone's design instead of being ripped off themselves? I made my own mount, but it is sandwhiched in the exact same place....wonder why that looks tucked up there so much more. I might need to revisit mine for an improvement. I always liked the CMM bracket....but never wanted to pay the $85.

y, I've had my compressor mounted for 3+ years now, and I don't recall TF having that out back then. I may be wrong, but I looked and looked and the CMM model was the only one I could ever find like that.....and now the TF model. Those brackets have the best design IMO.
