    I am considering installing an Alpine KTP-445U power pack amp and was wondering if anyone else has done this. Reason I'm asking is, I would like to know where in the dash to hide it. I had no trouble hiding the front crossovers in the dash but this is a bit bigger. Hopefully I get some insight before 3pm when I go to tear everything apart :p

    I would do upper glove box if you want to keep it close. It's pretty tight back behind the radio and the lack of ventilation could be an issue. Good luck

    I did see a spot against the heater box and the roof of the lower compartment of the flying bridge console. Basically above where the lighter socket is
