Air Lift Air Compressor mounting

Hey guys, I'm installing my AirLift Digital suspension kit and want ideas as to where to hide my air compressor. I thought about putting it up in the quarter panel, but it's kind of a tight fit. Any thoughts or suggestions? Where have others mounted theirs?

Well, I didn't get any suggestions today so impatient as I am I decided to just knock it out. I held the unit up in place as I marked the holes with a marker, then used a center punch and drilled. The frontward outer bolt was a pain to drill, I used my right angle drill to get it done the hole was just a little off but still managed to get all four lined up. So if anyone was curious to how to hide your air compressor for your air lift, this is one way. Other than that, metal fabrication would probably be necessary to mount them elsewhere in the quarter panels. The only other option I thought of doing was mounting them outside of the car and running the intake to the inside. There are two places to mount them just to the outsides of the mufflers just above the rear fascia. If this doesn't work I guess that will be my next choice.

All you can see is the feet! Missing part of the rubber on one and dropped the nut, still can't find it. Guess I'll be going to the hardware store for one little nut.

Almost completely hidden. Only problem is that the intake side touches the carpeting. I hope that won't be too much of a problem. Hopefully I'll add another compressor to the other side soon.

This is what it looks like without the carpeting.
