WOW,, have you come to the right place. First let me welcome you to the friendliest and most informative forum you will ever find. Now,,Airbags,,from personal experience on my last TV I used the Firestone's with great results. There are other otions out there though and some other posters will be along soon to tell you about them. They all work and they are all good. Listen to all the advise and study on your choice. If you decide on the airbags I would say yes to the onboard compressor. Good luck and again, Welcome aboard.
