    None, and hopefully it stays that way for a while
    Has anyone installed this? The instructions are bad and don't account for certain things, like the mount fitting. I may return it and go under the hood again, but figured I'd ask here first. TIA.

    I don't have that mount but I don't like the idea of subjecting that expensive compressor to the elements constantly like that. I prefer mine under the hood protected from the weather.

    I'll have to look, but I think someone has an underhood mount for sale in the marketplace.

    I questioned it, but seemed the best for not having to open the hood every time and less heat in Texas summers under the hood.

    Remember the manufacturer? I looked/searched but didn't see it.

    I was n am really interested in this

    was on the notify list for restock

    there’s another behind the grill mount by I think moleoverland but has been outta stock for some
    time

    Difference is that the moleoverland one seems to be able to keep the compressor horizontal VS r4t’s vertical

    that on top of exposure, possible accident, etc was why I haven’t pulled the trigger
    But I like that my compressor/switch is all neat under the hood

    however my interest comes from the major space freed up from getting rid of driver side compressor mount

    If I recall
    R4Ts Tacoma behind the grill mount had more detail on website, might help OP

    I had an alert set for it when they got more in, too. As for a video, you'd think they would but only PDF instructions. LMK if you want to try this one out. I'm leaning more and more towards passenger under the hood.

    I started with Slee but returned it. I ended up buying a Bandi mount for the passenger side up by the firewall.

    I wanted the driver side for my switch-pros.

    No wrong choice, just depends on your plan.

    Cheers
