my amp, nine.1 is little too big to fit in the glove compartment behind the passenger seat, so i was playing around with it and decided to just keep it in the pocket behind the passenger seat. it fits in there very tight, and is as stealthy as being in the glove box. no heat issues, easy install.

any downside you guys can think of about this idea?

 

no its ok but if you have to replace or upgrade the fule pump its going to ad a bit of work

 

what's a fuel pump got to do with anything? am i missing something?

 

no. it just that the acess to the fule pump is directly under where you are wanting to mont the amp. so i wouldent get to permenent with your mounting and be carefull when grounding your amp run the ground off to the side and use a short screw making shure not to hit the gas tank, good luck

 

sorry about the spelling its late.

 

oh. i see.

thank you for the info~

 

Shouldn't be a problem... lots of us mount our amps in there.

Mine is mounted on a removable amp rack, so as gsi mentioned, I can get to the fuel pump if needed. The grounding is on a ground block in the glove box, secured to one of the metal tabs sticking down in the compartment. No drilling near the gas tank needed.

 

I have a nine.1 and a nine.2 in that pocket, running both for about a month now and no problems. Only down side is not showing off such classy looking amps.

 

yeah. i might have to do the same thing. tho, im not sure how i should run the power wire to stock sub location. i already ran the power wire on the right side of the car. is there some kind of opening to feed the wire in there?

 

I put my amp in there with a shelf similar to neur0sis, for the back though I used a 170mm long bolt with some fender washers to hang the back end of the shelf.

The passenger and drivers sides of this compartment are all connected, if you have power to the passenger side you can easily pass it though to the drivers side.

yay. aright. thank you very much!

 

As far as getting the power through from the passenger side, to the drivers side, I did this:



The fuse block for power and ground in the glove box "secret compartment" and ran the two 8ga leads through one of the several holes in the bracing between the compartments. No problems at all!

 

thank you.

nice install btw.

 

YAY ED nine.1!


How do you like it? I have a eDi 6500 pair and an eD 12A as well as eDeadv1SE

BTW I have my amps placed here:

 

I really need to get around to installing my 6500's, I got them from the PRE-order, but have been switching cars ever since I got em. Only listned to them for like 2 days before I took them out and sold my old car.
I love my nine.1 thing is built like a tank and sound is awesome with it ran to a single 12v.2. I do miss those flat cone 12a's though.

 

i am dying to find out. i waited 6 month for my 11ov2s, and now the HU i wanna get is out of stock everywhere...

i love the appearance of nine.1 tho. so simple and beautiful. it looks so good, it makes me don't wanna do stealth install.

 

yes. those flat cones were beautiful.
