Default CD changer location

Ok, When I bought my "88 there was a 6 disc changer mounted behind the passenger seat. Problem is it keeps the seat back pretty upright and won't allow it to go back and the passenger looks very uncomfortable. Since the passenger is usually my wife, I told her I would try and move it.

Do you guys have changers? If so, where are they mounted? I am thinking of mounting it in the "bait tank" behind the passenger seat in the rear cargo area. Maybe just drill a hole and feed the cable through. Whadda ya think?

I have a 12 disc changer mounted in the left rear corner (Pax side), parallel to the rear of the vehicle. Works okay and is really out of the way.

Behind the passenger seat in the storage would be my first choice
I would be hesitant to cut through the bottom and if you do silicone it well to keep water out

Professionally mounted in storage well behind passenger seat. Its actually easy to reach in from the driver seat and remove the disk holder.

My 86 came with a 6 disc changer mounted to the rear bulkhead in cargo area. You had to pop the hatch to change discs, no biggie.
