Default ARB twin compressor pic request

i just got my ARB twin compressor from northridge4x4 today and my plan was to mount it under the passenger seat but once i started looking at it i realized that there is no way i can get to the bolts underneath it to mount it unless i took a bunch of stuff off under the jeep. i have a 2012 2 door rubi. i've looked around but can't find any pictures of how other people mounted it under the seat. if anyone has some pics or advice it would be awesome. thanks

Mounted mine under the hood. Didn't want it in the cab. It's pretty loud.

I used some flashing I had laying around in the garage. I used the arb bracket and secured it to the flashing, then screwed the flashing down to the floor pan. It took me awhile to come up with this...bottom line, mount your arb bracket to something then screw your new larger bracket into the floor. Hope this helps.

Oh, and sure it's a little loud, but you'll be out of the cab whenever you are using it anyway so who cares

Wouldn't some run their lockers with this compressor?

With the 2012s we donkt have much room at all in the engine compartment. I made a bracket for it last night but no can't slide it under the seat. Looks like I'm going to have to take the seat out to put it in. I have a rubicon so I don't have to worry about using it for my lockers so noise isn't really an issue
