I'm heading to Hatfield & McCoy Trails the middle of next week and have finally bout wrapped up all my little projects.
I found a 12 volt air compressor with about a 2 gallon tank on amazon that I figured I could fit under the driver seat.

I had to use a heat gun to heat up the plastic and bend it back for a good fit. It will be just enough to run a little air tool or impact for very short term. I ran the intake filter for it all the way up with my snorkel and vent lines.
I used a 2.5" shop vac hose for my snorkel. I siliconed a 2.5" PVC coupler on each end. The PVC coupler fit perfect into the intake of the main air box. I got a K&N filter that fit the other end. I was worried about the hose restricting air flow to the engine but it runs fine and doesn't seem to be lacking of air at all. I also ran all the vent lines up along side the hose as well.

The other thing I did was install some radiator fans on top for a little air flow while sitting around on the beer stops. I had some metal closet shelving laying around. Cut that up and welded little tabs to screw it to the roll cage. I wire a seperate switch for each fan. Had to reverse the wires and flip over the fan blades to get the air flowing downwards. It puts out some good air flow but they are a tad noisy.

I found a cheap way to make the door cup holders. I cut rubber bungee cords in 6.25" lengths. I ground down a small deepwell socket and sharpened the end to press out a 8mm hole for the push pin to go through. It seems to work well so far.
The only thing left to do is mount the RAM mounts for my garmin Rino. Also got a Pro Armor 4-point harness coming as well.
