Yes, but you have to either remove the plastic spacer/cover on that side or trim the spacer/cover to accomodate the amp.

I see a lot of you guys mounted the amp in the stock location. How did you guys secure it there? I want to relocate my 500/1 which I would think would be easier than the 500/5...

The 500/5 and 500/1 are the same size.

Mine is velcroed in place on top of the Bose amp rack with strong velcro.

I put my spare tire in one of those spare tire covers that you can buy for SUV's. I have it just sitting in my trunk on top of my false floor for everyday driving...when I go to a show or whatever, I'll pull it out when I get there.

That sub looks pretty good in there! Is that a custom-built enclosure or is it commercially available like the 4080? I'm on the fence with whether I want two 10" 4080 enclosures or one 12" like you've got.

Also, do you have to remove your sub enclosure to get to the spare tire?

never give up your spare tire for audio purposes, that's just silly IMHO

It sounds like the beginning of a bad horror flick...guy has a blowout in WV and has no cell reception and no spare and has to walk to the nearest gas station lol

Just mount the subs on the back of the seat and be done with it.

At least you can enjoy your sound system while you wait for AAA or Infiniti Roadside
