Exactly. A stock Discovery is a beautiful thing. You should strive to keep it looking stock.
Hint: It's not a real ashtray.
I agree with this philosophy for the most part. Nothing has been done inside my truck that can't be undone. However, my truck is at the point where nobody could mistake it for stock. Fenders and sheetmetal have been cut, etc.
Pop open the ashtray and lets see it. I can always revert my switch panel back to stock if I like your switch configuration, it just seems VERY tight for two pneumatic switches and 6 airlines.
I could have used my 3-switch holder and used stock switches for a totally stock look. But that would have required me to use the electric air solenoids. I wanted to eliminate those solenoids and run pneumatic switches.
I compromised ease of mounting the switches so I could run pneumatic switches.
Dan, your compromise is that you have to open your ashtray every time you want to engage/disengage your lockers.
You chose and inconspicuous mount over ease of use. I like how cleans yours looks Dan, I just don't think I'd like having to ass around with my ashtray to turn them on/off.
I still want to see how you have two pneumatic switches and another for the compressor packed in there.
Everything is a compromise on these trucks from the moment you install that 2" lift.

It's vented under the hood. The four lines are air in, locker 1, locker 2, and vent.
I'll dig up some photos.
....and the switch is actually a 4-position knob. Off, rear locker, front locker, both lockers.

Great fisheye shots.
And I was going to say the cord was janky-wanky, but you're right...nimbly bimbly is more accurate.
x2 on this. Save the few bucks you'd spend on the TT and just do ARB's or Ashcroft. I'd rather wheel it stock than throw money into something that really isn't doing a whole lot.
