That's great news. Is there a place where I could find a detailed how-to on changing the factory amp out? I apologize if that seems like an "asking for hand-outs" kind of question, but honestly I've run into so many bizarre problems with the wiring in the Crossfire lately (I found literally three different answers to the question "where is the factory amp located?") that I'm afraid to take anything at all for granted without consulting the experts first.

And by "experts", I mean the folks here on crossfireforum.org. Every audio person I've talked to locally about this car gives me a lot of information that makes it clear they've never actually worked on a Crossfire before. I had one tech tell me the factory amp and speakers were 6 ohm, and if I put any aftermarket speaker in, it would instantly blow.

I just feel like making sure
