1979 Glovebox Dimensions?
I would appreciate someone with a 1979 measuring their glovebox. I wish to now if this amp will fit in that space. Footprint is 9 3/4" (wide), 7 3/4" deep and 2 1/2" high. Thanks!

I tend to agree with you. Have not seen my 1979 since October and will not see it until April. So I need the help of others for my spring projects.

I have heard of amps being installed in the compartment area behind the passenger seat. If you take out that black thin shell lining in it I believe there is even more room to mount an amp there.

The back center storage on the driveshaft hump works great, next to bat. & puts the wt. over the rear.

Re: 1979 Glovebox Dimensions? (paul79)
I have been thinking about this further. I may sell the Kenwood. Can anyone suggest a small amp (2- or 4-channel) with a footprint that will fit in the glovebox? I am looking for a small boost in the JVC output. About 50%. The HU is OK but just falls a little bit short.

Rainbow MP A IQ series,, small amps w/ decent power, multi channels and equalizers on them.
Could be hard to get in the US & Canada though.
MPA 4.280 IQ 4 channel amp, 2x40Watt RMS @ 4 Ohm, 4x70 peak.
Lengthxwidthxheight: 174x160x46 mm
