    Going to be installing an amp under my drivers seat. Anyone know if there is a factory ground somewhere nearby?

    If you pull the center console there's plenty of chassis ground locations. But I'm assuming you're going to want something a bit more substantial?

    Bunch of Basic Taco mods.

    My Mr Marv box showed up, threaded inserts all installed, two coats of stain laid down. Tomorrow morning starts the high gloss urethane and sanding.

    I don’t know why I’m so hellbent on making this pretty when it going behind the seat, probably because I know someone is going to see it.

    Was hoping to use a factory ground so I didn't have to drill/sand paint away, I'm sure I'll figure something out once I get it all torn apart.

    I found a threaded hole under the center console, found a spare bolt that fit, and grounded my amps there with a ring terminal. I believe there’s another ground stud under the carpet under the front seat as well.

    Thanks, I'm sure I'll find it just haven't looked very hard yet.

    The one I used was on the driver side rearward of the shifter, threaded right into the center transmission tunnel. Took a 10mm bolt, looked nice and sturdy. I need to circle back around and add another battery to chassis ground, and alternator wire if it isn’t awful to get to.

    Traded her in for a 2021. Cost me about $2k to drive for 9 years- not including the mods along the way.

    I printed a mount for the switches. I went about it this way so I can relocate them to somewhere more permanent once I decide where I want them. The mount is held on with some industrial velcro, this way it is totally removable and no holes drilled into the interior.
