Got Bags, Need Help

[xLIxPunk]

Hey guys! So pumped, just got my bags in today! Pretty clueless on the trunk setup though. I was trying to go to hide as much as possible. What material would you recommend me to buy to mount everything to? Here's a picture of my trunk. Throw out suggestions. Im thinking of mounting the compressor/manifold in the spare tire spot and the tank above that, right under the trunk flooring. Let me know what ya think. Thanks

Do you want the tank bracket under or above the carpet?

In my opinion, hiding the tank brackets under the carpet would look clean.

I don't know if theres a reason the tank brackets are as long as they are, but I would cut them and shorten them so that the bottom of the tank is like 1mm above the carpet itself when mounted.

Just a suggestion.

Just make sure that whatever mounting option you go with you can still get to your tank drain without having to tilt the tank back. If it becomes too much of an issue, you can always go with a remote drain or an electric one.

3/4" MDF has always worked well for me for trunk installations.

You can also run Viair compressors on their sides if it helps you fit it. Of course, you'll want to make sure there's enough room around it for some air flow to circulate around the head.

3/4" MDF is what I have used.

3/4" MDF as said will help. I wouldn't mount the compressor right to the floor or it will be VERY loud lol.
