Somehow I missed the background on what you’ve got going with this mod... I notice the molle racks are missing. When are you doing the full write-up on this? Is this part of the custom bed drawer system? Inquisitive minds need to know!
Lol, yeah I'll do a full write up when the bed drawer system is done, this is the 9gal potable water tank for the ~16" galley drawer. It's a slow moving project with the holidays being right now so I can't wait to show all photos at once.

Working on a couple projects the past couple days.

Primary power is wired to the comm rack and radios are all powering on. NMO mount bracket on order; should have any day now and can install it by hood. Comms should be good to go after that--just don't switch between services on me. I can do CB, GMRS or ham, but will need to switch antennas and the coax connection between services. It's possible my 2M/70CM antenna will handle GMRS freq's okay, but still need to switch coax cable between radios ...

These are powered by the OEM Aux 1 switch (wish they'd let us make custom switch toggles for these like I did for my JK sPod panel) ...

Also got the ARB Twin Compressor mounted and the wiring run through the drain plug under the passenger seat (tried through the firewall but no joy with that route--wires way too big). Plan to wire this through a relay controlled by an aux switch. Compressor draws 53 amps at max load, and max aux switch is 40 amps. So will wire through relay I'll mount by battery ...

It may be personal preference, but it seems you’ve mounted your most excellent upgrade to best suit a left-handed person.
