I ran mine under the carpet by the door thresholds, then drilled holes under the dash into the fender well. Make sure you use grommets, cause you don't want the airline rubbing on the sharp edges. Now the rear, I ran under the trunk liner kinda off to the side, then drillet into the tower from there.

was looking myself earlier and most guys run outside along brake lines and side skirts then up the wells in the front and right through the towers next to the fitting in the rear basically showing 3-4 inches out the tower in the rear wells.yes ull have to drill to get them in or out the car (bags r out side tank is inside) gotta drill some where right lol. nad use gromets so u dont chaf the lines later on down the road.,

well I know two guys one has a j and the other a PT snoozer both on bag (they know little bout it ) but they only have the compressors on when the tank drops below a select level. the tanks they have have a pressure sensor in it so they can monitor when it needs air. also the j kicks on auto (has easystreet from air ride tech) the snoozer has easystreet also yet has a switch in the engine compartment to turn the pressors on and off so it only runs when he want it to(the snoozer is strictly a show use only car).so ive heard that alot of guys put switches in for the compressor.

yes it is on a pressure switch and will turn on at a certain psi and shut off at another. but most people run a switch in line also so you can turn it off anytime you want.

not to bust your balls but i highly doubt you searched

as far as the compressor yes like mentioned most have different pressure switches you can buy. i had a 145-175 pressure switch meaning if the tank dropped below 145 the compressor came on and kicked off at 175 when it was filled. i also used a switch on my dash to control the compressor
