How To Get To The Back Of The Stock Amp?

[Raymond.]

I'm trying to get to the connectors on the back of the amp but I guess my hands are too big?

I need to plug in a SOT cable so I can fit my Parrot kit.

This is what's off atm. Any pointers as to what comes off next?

TIA

remove the bolt just to left of glovebox hinge and above bundle of wires from fuse box in pic, the top one holding bracket and lastly one holding dash moulding, pull dash toward you and wiggle amp from mounting bracket.

Cheers Ian,

Got the plug out and in.

All is working apart from the Parrot kit mutes all speakers apart from the O/S rear speaker. I'll have to have a look at the various mutes and see what's what.

Then I need to fit it all and find a suitable place for the display to mount.

Sorted the mute thing out but it's seems the volume has been cut. Volume on a quarter was pretty loud but now it isn't. I can turn the volume up all the way whereas before I couldn't.

Is this the box in the SOT lead not coping or limiting it?

If you've unplugged the amp then sometimes it all throws a bit of a wobbler. It helps to disconnect the stereo to reset it too. Also change the tone settings a few times to re-instruct the amp.

I take it you meant stereo volume not car kit volume?

I didn't bother with the stereo mute connection as its a pain in the arse and I don't mind the music coming through the rear speakers still.

Thanks,

I've sorted the secondary mute. Just the one cable from the Parrot loom to the mute on the SOT.

I meant the stereo volume yeah. I'll try and unplug the stereo and mess with some settings.

I'd say the volume has been cut by 40%

Also change the tone settings a few times to re-instruct the amp.

Not had a chance to take the radio out and unplug the two plugs but I have changed the tone settings and I'm sure it's a lot louder again now.

Thanks :)
