86 vette
i am a novice on corvette's. i removed the pan inside the storage compartment on the drivers side and found what looks like a pump with metal lines coming into it. also a silver rectangular box with a connector and a lot of wires. any ideas what i am looking at? i saw these when i was trying to get a new stereo to work.

Each speaker has its own amp.
The Forum has an audio section. Ask your questions there. Also learn to use the search feature here as posts and threads from the past will answer most of your questions. Look over the stickies too.

This shows the amp on the rear speakers from when I swapped them out for kicker speakers in my 86.

Its almost at the bottom of the page as thumbnails. Just click them to see a full size of the amps.
The swap out I did should give you an idea of how to get around the factory amps too.

Tnvette, don't get upset. Ron only said what he did because there are indeed certain questions which come up over and over on the forum and the Search really is everyone's friend. All the info you need is here already.
