fitting air compressor.and extra power outlet

Yes Bundy,

No worries.
A correctly rated fuse for the cable size will protect the circuit from overload, whatever you plug in.

I did the same thing in my Hilux. I have storage _Affordable_Storage_Drawers.aspx in the tray and I left the L/H drawer slightly shorter which left me enough room to mount my Max-Air compressor and a Fuse box in the space.

I used 8 BandS wire routed directly from the battery to the fuse box and then from there I have taken power for the compressor and power for 12v accessory outlets in the tray. This system has been in place for nearly 12 months and works faultlessly.

I have also mounted a 3L airtank under the tray with air outlets in the rear. So the compressor is activated via a dash switch and also a pressure switch on the airtank. A 3L tank is not enough to inflate a tyre on its own but it is enough to get a good blast of air for cleaning etc.

Here is a couple of pics of the compressor and fuse box mount before it was fitted to the 4x4. I haven't got any photos of the set up post installation. Good luck it makes life a lot easier!!!
