Default CD-Changer(s) Mounting Locations?????

Where are you guys that are adding aftermarket CD-changers mounting them? If you've added an aftermarket CD-changer and have pics of where you mounted / installed them can you post them? I'm trying to get some ideas for where to do mine, different pics would be great! Thanks

Here's mine (with the alpine nav unit beside it). The MDF box has since been painted black. Amazing they both fit in there (barely).

is the OEM trim plate around it? or did you have that made and covered to match? if its the OEM plate can you please take a min to measure that opening and let me know what they are? Im trying to see if my Kenwood changer is going to work in there or not? Also, did you have to cut or mod anything in there to mount it?

KJ-350:

The installers created the opening for the changer. Given the depth of the compartment inside, after its removal no other alterations/cutting had to be done.

That is exactly what I wanted to do. Do you know if it possible? I have not seen the changer in that location with the door still being used. If it works that woud be perfect.

The problem you may encounter is with depth. I had a DVD player I wanted to fit that was a little larger than DIN sized and it was too long to fit well.

As long as that requirement is met, mounting something while maintaing the cubby door shouldn't be that difficult. Try pulling out one of your cubby holes and making some test measurements. It would likely require cutting off the back parts of the cubby.

If cutting out back of cubby is all it would take, that would be fine with me. I will check that out. Thanks for thr response.
