Bose Amp relocation - Saloon
« on: 11 November 2013, 18:42:36 »
A while back I relocated the Bose amp in my 2.6 Saloon into the side storage compartment (where the First Aid kit should reside).

Since then it's sat in the plastic holder on the door  ::) so really needs to be mounted permanently. I have an estate bracket but was wondering what method others have used to secure the amp in this location?

I used a PFL CDC2 bracket, slightly modified.

pfl saloon bracket fits the space perfectly, and bolts down nicely...  ...seeing as it was made for that location ;D,

Just needs amp fixing holes

Ignore I, I be thinking of the CDC2 cover for an Estate:-
