I want to know the same thing.... Tom what brackets did you use to mount them?


post some pictures of the trunk set up. I can't decide if I should put it in the spare area or on the ledge in the trunk.

The front makes sense, but the rear I don't get...school me bro. I'm trying to avoid breaking one of these sensors.

the lines follow the stock fuel lines underneath the car. theres a switch inside the trunk that is switched 12v. i used that for the ignition on. the headlight switch, i didnt bother with, works fine at one brightness for me, plus u can control the touchpad's brightness anyway. i just grounded it.

the rear is at that angle because if u jack the rear up, the UCA doesnt move straight up, it moves at an angle

No, there is nothing wrong with asking the community for there insight. This is why we are suppose to be here.....Also He has done air before on his car. I guess he is looking for other possibilities. Some run air lines outside, other run them inside. If more people chime in others can search this thread and be helped if they decide to do an accuair install.

Why reinvent the wheel....

The e level is for auto leveling, the sensors are use to calculate what height each corner is and electronically level to the exact setting which was saved. Like if your fat chic gets in the back of your car and the rear drops, the car will automatically raise to the saved height setting to compensate. Accuair = big chic friendly....LOL
