I love the accuair controller. I had the AVS chrome 9 switch box before.
The accuair controller is alot cleaner and smaller. And when u dump your car at night you can take the controller with you.

I'm in the same boat, I've had my autopilot system for over 5 yrs now. It works for me and I don't intend to change anything.

Sounds like you are getting the standard 5 switch box which typically comes with an air ride kit. It's like 5 rocker switches in a chrome box.
I ran a 10 switch box for a long time, then I upgraded to my current controller.
So yeah, you can upgrade anytime. Any air ride controller you buy new should come with all the necessary instructions and harnesses.

Only 3 switches.
1 will control the front, it will control both left and right side at the same time. It will both control it up and down on the same switch
The second switch will control the rear. It will do the same as the front and control both sides on the rear and adjust it up and down.
The third switch will raise or lower both front and rear evenly..
I did not want separate switches for each side.
The way itnis set up. With it all the way lifted it will be at stock height, and all the way down, well, it will be all the way down.
I'm running
20x9.5 up front and 20x11 in the rear and will be able to pull it off.
I'm glad later I can upgrade. I get wholesale on all parts so it won't cost me much later down the road. The gauge will be flush ,ousted and I am debating on putting those 3 switches in the cig ash tray up front as to I do not smoke anyway, and it will look stock on the inside

I had(have) the easy street auto pilot. I can honestly say that thing sucks. I bought it for one thing, which was for a preset and auto leveling. Did it ever work for me? Never. I'm not sure if I was supposed to buy the manifolds for it to work, so that may have been the case. That was 600 bucks gone to waste for me. If I were you, I'd spend the extra 300 and get the Accuair. I keep hearing that it's the shizznit.

i use the EAS 7 switch box. ive know a few people with the easy street setup that had issues. on of them lost all control and dropped the front before going blank screen. he had to drive far as hell with zero psi in front and beat his car down majorly. ive been debating on switching to manual paddle valves.

I'm between the Dakota Digital and Accuair. I'm leaning towards the Dakota Digital because it has pressure readings on the controller where the Accuair doesn't come with a digital gauge. It's also cheaper. I could get the Dakota Digital for around $800 and the Accuair for $1400 (including a digital gauge). However, I do like the cleaner look of the Accuair and the fact that you can take the remote with you. Are my reasons for leaning towards the Dakota Digital justifiable?

Accuair relies on height sensor rods, which I think is better than gauge/psi readings.

Damn I need to upgrade. These digital controllers with auto ride height sound awesome. I just did my install on my bags yesterday, Tein CST struts, with UAS air bags. My controller is just the OG 7 Way one. I can use basically any controller/ecu for my system correct?
