Best Place to mount an ARB air compressor in a Discovery 2 with SAI?

I'm trying to find a decent place to mount my ARB air compressor for a rear locker.

I'm not really sure I want it on the frame. I'd rather have it secured in the engine compartment. But there doesn't seem to be any room for it in there.

I have mine in the rear storage bin, passenger side. Plumbed a chuck behind my fuel filler door too, works very well.

The only real option those of us cursed with SAI have is to pull the bottle jack and fab up a mount for that spot. It might take switching to a more standardized battery tray to make it happen, but there should be enough room there.

Mine (Viair) is where the factory SLS compressor used to be, with the intake run into the cabin to make sure it doesn't flood and a chuck run to each bumper. They seem to do just fine as long as the intake is kept high and dry.

Okay

So here is what I did. I know I said I had SAI. I actually removed it a while ago and put an air compressor in its place. I didn't say anything because I didn't want anyone confused.

So, without further ado, I looked at it for awhile and thought about building a steel plate to hold it. but I really don't want to add a lot more weight to the vehicle.

I finally decided to mount it to my other compressor with the help of some 1/4" All thread and some nuts and washers, its mocked up. I just need a few switches, wiring, an oring for the compressor tank, and hose to the air locker.
