Install in progress...need help. Where is the factory amp located in the 350Z Coupe? Any tips for getting there will be appreciated.

You don't have the Bose system, right?

It's in the area where your spare is bucko! You don't want to mount your amp there though - won't be able to get to it. Best place for it is in the cubby behind the passenger seat. Best of luck to you :werd:

Actually I think it's in the strut brace..........

Yes, the Touring comes with the Bose sub and six disc HU.

Tell your installer to look for a "black box" back by your spare compartment - I think that the only way to get "into" it is from below (read MAJOR PIA).

All signs are pointing to this being the case. I was hoping we could avoid tearing into that thing. The new amp is going in the spare tire well.

I really think that you should reconsider that mounting position Kenny - if for whatever reason you want to make any setting changes you will have to tear all that crap out again to make an adjustment - then put it all back together :headshake:

If you want it hidden - there is room under the "glove box" behind the passenger seat. There is also a removable "tray" so if you need to get access you can quickly & without tearing anything out to get to it. Food for thought - just trying to help :werd:

Bill...there is nothing in my spare tire well, and it's easier to get to than the "glove box", plus more air in there to cool the amp. Thanks though...

whats going on here? The Bose amp is located in the left rear corner in the spare tire well. What exactly are you trying to do?

 

[studybuddy]

His audio installer is taking it out from my understanding.

 

[jinxxycat]

[toykilla]
