    I mounted mine by the rear seats on the lower wall panel, near where seat belts attached to floor. I can take a picture for you. You will literally never touch them once installed

    Quick update. So I'm changing put the vrx1.500 for another vrx 4.300and we are going full active so no cross overs in the glove box I guess:s lol and the back door woofers are in today! Materials have all been ordered from sky high car audio in Arizona . They are the only guys that had everything we needed all from one place. I held off on the battery upgrade from this order because shipping is too much for a battery. If we have any problems I will buy a battery from Toronto. Here's a lay out of the set up

    Zack,

    Also the wires are neater than that normally. I was adjusting my crossover about a month ago and never pulled the panel to clean up wiring. #lazy

    Looks like a sweet set up. Does your Ipad draw attention to people when they walk past?

    Not that I am aware of looks like any modern dash gps. But then again when I am in sf I pay an attendant to watch my truck always.

    Nicely done thanks for the share this could be handy if I cannot get my controller mounted well with 3m tape. I'm planning on running the wire up the pillar into the headliner. Drilling a hole inside the sunglass holder so at a push of the button my controller comes down and opens up to access and when I'm not using it close the sunglass holder I'll be back to oem look for theft purposes.

    Anyone have a vrx 4.300 for sale. I can't find anything that ships to Canada. Ebay Italy has tons of vrx amps unfortunately they aren't willing to ship to Canada. My 4.300 and 1.500 were from Italy. I NEED ONE MORE and preferable blue to keep everything the same. Even willing to do a straight trade 4.300 for my 1.500

    Took it out. If you remove the plastic plates to access the bolts to remove the seat there is a screw on each side. Remove those and push the plastic backing off.

    I wasn't sure what pic was there. I ended up taking it out and it made a world of difference. I installed an Alpine bass knob so I can control the base better. I installed it into one of the button slots below the A/C controls.

    Also, I layered the outside of the box with Ensolite foam so it is a soft surface touching the plastic bin it sits in.

    Thank buddy. I have an American address the only issue I'm having is the amps are in Italy and the don't ship to us or canada since we're on the other side of the world. I even offered to pay for the shipping and wrapping and so far no luck so I'm keeping my fingers crossed and checking ebay kijiji Craigslist and audio forums for any recent post.
