Airlift Wireless One airbag compressor install

My Forester 2801QS has airbags that are a real pain to check and fill, the valves are in the storage compartments and the fill stems don't stick out far enough to attach to without removing the nut that holds them.
The Airlift Wireless One compressor kit seemed like the answer, I mounted all the components on a board and mounted that at the end of a storage compartment. I used an additional relay and wired it to the coach batteries through a rocker switch mounted above the battery disconnect so it's easily visible and the switch is lit when it's on. I tee'd into the original fill stems so they are still available if needed and ran all the wiring and tubing in wire loom alongside the existing wiring. I was scratching my head a bit with the extra relay wiring but figured it out and the system is working great. The small remote control clips to the sun visor and has memory settings for different air pressures. It will sure make it a lot easier to try different bag pressures to find the best ride.

That is very cool and more sophisticated than the last Airlift on board s system I saw about 12 years ago.
