I am about to start driving the s10 as a daily and I am concerned about the compressor mounted in the bed being exposed to the rain. I dont have a bed cover yet and dont want to ruin the compressor.

Anybody have there compressor in a daily exposed to rain? Will it ruin it?

Any suggestions to protect it?

make a small cover for them. might help isolate the noise and protect them from anything in the bed too.
