Just finished another G35, this time a Black 06 Coupe.

starting off, a Pioneer 6800 DVD 6 disc double din dvd changer with 7" screen was installed via the double din finisher. the stock nav is retained. A switch below the steering column activates the bypass...and stock nav voice output is routed to the stock door speakers, as you will see that the new front stage is not in the doors at all





front stage consists of a set of DLS ultimate UP6 6.5" component set in custom fabricated off axis kick panels lined in sude. as mentioned before, the combination of DLS speakers and the G's interior makes for a great image and staging. sound appears to come from eye level, and is well centered near the clock.









powering the system is a DLS refernece series RA40, bridged to provide each front channel wtih over 150 watts, and a jl audio 500/1 powering a 4080 box mounted 10w6v2..here is the sub



now at this point, i would like to invite you to guess where the amps are

lets see, are they under the floor in the trunk?



nope

below the seats?



no way, not enough room anyway to fit two decent size amps with the powered seat mechanism...

so...anyway wanna take a guess as to where the amps are?

i will post pics of them later on hahaha i am so bored

 

I would guess the ceiling~ lolz

 

uh...no haha i would expect you G and Z owners should get this pretty quickly

 

amps are...under the rear passenger seat? looks really clean btw

 

no, not there, as menetioned in the post hhe, there couldnt possbily enough room under the seat to mount two big amps...

 

In the glovebox?

 

i wish the amps were that small, i would be stashing them everywhere if that were the case

 

This is so damn hard haha. If both the Z and the G have it, so its obviously not under the rear seat.

Uhm...

 

well no, this is a much easier install to do on a G coupe, not even sure if its possible on a Z, hint hint

i meant you Z guys should have seen enough Gs to known what stock loosk like

b

 

Damn...Bing is like the Easter Bunny hiding them eggs! LOL . Hmm? Is it under the dash? How about underneath the rear windshield (in the trunk)?

 

Underneath the rear deak by the rear speakers?

 

My guess is underneath the windshield. Theres a huge area there. Or behind the rear seat.

 

not in any of those places

 

in the door panels?

 

okay okay...now i will probably get ripped for being technical with the words, but they are honestly not UNDER any seats

here we got:









they are BEHIND the front seats haha...now if you go back and look at that one pic of behind the seat, you can see the edge of the amp rack top haha

a few answers to some questions you may have:

1. the seat can travel all the way back

2. the top panel is supported so no you wont collapse it by stepping on it, i tried lol

3. the floor is rasied by about 2.25", and really donest affect the back seat leg room that much, i tried sitting there myself to verify and i am 6'1" i ran out of headroom first lol

4. there are ventialtion spots so its not compltely sealed off, for cooling, the RA40 almost never overheats, the 500x1, if it really does, i can always add a squirell cage fan...

okay, now you can bash me by saying you guessed underseat before

 

Wow! Pretty nifty!

 

You know whats funny, i noticed that but I thought you vacuumed it lol. I was thinking that at first, but didnt think i twas possible. And it possible in the Z

 

Hahaha....that's a good one!

 

hehe hhonestly, i had to crank up the brightness to ge that pic, in normal lighting conditions, its basically impossible to see

 

Nicw stealth install of the amps...haha too bad you are not in a cold weather area...otherwise the amps could serve as feet warmers
