The amp fits between you and the battery but say good by to the jack, but I am working on putting a smaller scissor jack in the spare tire.
Try it with out the amp its all personel taste.

I made this tray out of fiberglass to mount the amp so there are no screw
holes anywhere. The whole system comes out with no modifications.

I can send you a pic but it's no different than yours. They can build
it to your specs, I got mine with sub outputs an I pod outputs.
I put my amp in the battery compartment and the sub in the jack
you see nothing. Then the 6.5 in the kick panels sounds great and looks original.
OK, I was impressed by these guys... it looks like they are the ones that made my 58 Wonderbar repro.

I bought a 69 stereo from ebay, but I have emailed these guys twice with questions and received no answer. Do they not communicate online? No-answer people make me nervous about shipping them expensive parts to do expensive work. Have you had this problem with them?
