I would have been willing to wait a few months but I have a feeling in a year switch pros will have a new version that can handle the ARB twin and there might be some nice covers to make the switches look sweet. I'm not willing to wait that long. This is just my opinion. Plus if you look at a sPOD it is nice quality. Doesn't seem anything special online but when I got mine and held it in my hands I was surprised at how nice it was. I'm also not a big fan of having the newest and greatest thing. I like to let the dust settle and let products work out the bugs before I buy them. I don't like being the guinea pig for some company just so I can be the first on the block with the new toy.

I think either way you can't go wrong. IMO switch pros will make a decent splash and then in a year or two sPOD is going to need to drop their prices significantly or come out with something better to compete.

That could be great (customization, flexibility) or not so great (more work, less professional appearance). The closest you could come to an exact install is someone buys one, does all the work, and puts a detailed write-up on the forum. But even then, you might not like where he mounts the controller or such. You're free to adapt his design to your purposes. If doing that level of work is your cup of tea, you should have at it. If not, sPOD is a pretty elegant, turnkey solution.

If you are having issues reaching John or Cinde to buy direct from them, there are vendors on this forum who can get it for you. I know Northridge 4x4 carries SPODs.

You can buy a ARB pigtail with your SPOD, and it will make hooking up your ARB compressor a breeze.....

Good luck with your build.

Thanks!
