Since we're on the topic of stereos; some PO in the distant past put a large (though "only" 100W) amp in the front trunk, then another little amp by the passenger's feet. There were very heavy gauge speaker wires running from the front amp to behind both passenger seats (where the speakers were is a mystery unless they just sat on the floor behind the seats? the original cut outs for the 4/6" in the rear deck are still intact).
I have removed all of this, it was fairly well installed but I think most heads provide more watts then of old. My Sony did not like the amp for some reason and I didn't try to figure it out since those speakers have more than they can handle anyway. Some day I'd like good speakers, perhaps an amp, maybe even a sub in the "spare tire" That is way down the road though. Right now I've got my cheap (though quite nice) Sony going to some 4" round door speakers and it's not too bad for now.
