If you are asking how to run the airlines from the trunk, I would just stop and do some more research or have a professional do it.
Air suspension is not something that should be DIY if you do not already understand how it works fully.

I have the whole system wired up and tank installed and management installed. Just trying to figure out the easiest route to go from my vu4 to underneath the car. Basically if you know any holes to run the lines through or did you drill holes in the body. Here's a pic of my setup so far


Trying to hide the lines and not block the fold down seats

I've researched plenty and know exactly how the system works. Just trying to find out any spots that you guys are using to go from inside the trunk to outside the car

Your trunk is gutted, you can't find any rubber grommet holes after that point? Routing airlines is the easy part of the installation.

And I already know your next question you'll be asking.
Your probably gonna ask "how to mount the eLevel sensors?" Well to that question, search the forums

I think Im going to have a shop install the elevel. I did notice on your build thread that you removed the rear side seat bolsters. How the hell do you get them off? I really like the way you set up your system. Kinda regretting right now on how far forward I set up my system

for the bolster forgot how it comes off...i take cars apart daily so its all a blur. most times its unbolt one bolt at bottom of the bolster and lift straight up. usually there is a hook on the top of the bolster to keep it in place.
