Yeah that’ll do it!!
I’m contemplating a little drain hole in the box.
Maybe a light spray of some kind of corrosion inhibitor on the compressor itself, wd40 do one.

Imagine the complaints of complexity if you did......Ferrari engine in a GrenadierI would prefer to have a Ferrari badge on my car ...
But perhaps I am drunk
I like the refined look but I have a hard time going this route when I can also fit 4 10L Sceptre water jugs in the same wheel well space. Some places when you have to refill water on a trip it is much easier to take the individual jugs to the water source/store.More Simpson Desert prep... this time water storage solutions. If you're in the market, I found the Pak Offroad 40L Footwell tank fits like a glove.
(If it's not obvious, the driver and passenger seats are canted forward in the below photo)

It handily ships with a rechargeable tap dispenser so no need to plumb in taps etc if it's a temporary fitment.
FYI Stewart at Pak indicates that a rear loadspace tank is also in the works for the Grenadier.
I don’t know. I travel with three 20L Jerry’s and that floor tank looks mighty elegant.
I thought it might have been a humorous reference to the limited edition "Camel Trophy" LR Defenders of old ...
We carry a length of hose and fittings for filling it, as Steve mentions above.
Along this subject, has anyone added tie down points in the rear footwells?
Not in a Grenadier, but have seen some use bolt-on tie-downs at the seat anchor points - unbolt the seats/rails, slip the tie-down underneath (at the back, suitable spacer at the front to keep the seat level), reinstall the seat.
The Pak off-road water tank looks promising…..do you happen to have the measurements for the width of the tank as it passes over the footwell? I don’t see those figures on the website.
Sure, no problem. By my measure it’s 200mm through the marked location. The tank has a slight swell to it so it’s difficult to be absolutely precise.
Do the bars make any noise at speed, I think it might be the way for me to go for lightness and ease.of instalation and removal when not required. I thought they looked OK on paper but wanted to see on a vehicle
No doubt it is a clean solution, however, it is all good until you can't park near your water source & have to hand carry jugs to and from a water refill location. One of our regular places to refill our water jugs in Baja has no parking nearby & if away from the road & we have to park down he road & carry our jugs to them. We have also refilled in places in the US where we had to carry our jugs to the water source for refill. My preference for separate jugs is based on a lifetime of of travel where we camp in remote locations and have to carry our own water and knowing the place we have used to refill.
As I responded to another commenter...
