hey amthar do you know if a JL 500/1 could fit above or below the 500/5 (or a 450/4) in the stock bose amp location? I saw the 500/5 seemed a bit cramped in the pictures...

500/1 is smaller, so I'd say yes. It's also less cramped if you remove the Bose amp bracket. I left it in because it offered an easy way to mount the amp down (without drilling new holes into the body).

double din kit. converts the proprietary integrated console/dash to a double din dash that an aftermarket radio can easily install into.

No Sat is down below the Bose bracket line in the corner. One box is for the bluetooth and there is some other box above the Bose bracket line that I haven't seen in other people's install pictures, and it's not clearly marked.

Ok, interesting. I didn't think about the bluetooth. Not sure what the other box is, but I can confirm it's not on my 2005.

It's a horsepower box, it makes my car a little faster.

And I didn't, since you are bare meters from DLS's US HQ, are in a sea of local dealers, and refused to deal with any of them.
