Arb compressor install, rrc

In an effort to stop the spread of covid19, I find myself at home working on some rover projects these next few weeks. I started my locker install of an arb rear. My question is where I steal power for the switches, looks like I need a switched power wire and illuminated circuit. Anybody know where best to steal those from?

Red with white trace is Rover dash light illumination wire color. Solid white is fused switched power.

I have a 95 v8 with the square filter box, I moved the abs pump closer to the abs modulator by about an inch and half, wedged compressor between filter and airbox. this allowed me to run a short hose to air tank as an auxiliary reservoir, I'm still running air suspension.
if you have a TDi, you don't need all emissions stuff specially charcoal canister on right fender well. I would remove charcoal canister, this frees lots of realty. if air tank is still on chassis now you can plumb to it and use extra air to air tires or other. tank does not hold enough air to run power tools for long, nor does the ARB compressor has the duty cycle to keep up with the air loss of using power tools. it will over heat and shut down.
