I've used the pump a couple of times, but not the "fix" part. The compressor is quite quick; I usually end up overinflating and have to let some air back out.

From the factory I only got a foam insert, the electric pump and a funnel. 1 month in to ownership I ended up buying the spare tire kit which came with the foam insterts to raise the trunk floor as well as a jack, new trunk floor and the spare rim only. The pump actually works really well since all gas stations in my area have broken air pumps, plus the hassle of driving over there. But in a blowout or sidewall puncture situation it will be useless.

I've seen a few posts on here about going about making a system in the spare tire area but I guess the challenge would be height

Eventually, the compressor and manifold for airbags will be hidden there. ? I’ve already been mapping out placement ideas.
i considered the d2 racing coilovers with a tankless system, and that would be a great spot for it imo
