Hi all,
Looking to modify my audio setup in my 05 RL build. Made a video explaining what I’m looking for. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

 

Welcome to the forums.

did you get the bolt at the bottom of the arm rest?

so, if you lift the arm rest up, there's a big square cubby. underneath the rubber mat at the bottom of the cubby, there's a bolt.

 

Will try this later today. I feel like i tried that, but maybe not. Thanks in advance, i’ll update once i get the chance

 

couldnt really tell in your video if you removed it or not, thus my asking!

 

I’m assuming these are what you’re referring to? That’s what’s under the rubber platter. They were all screws I believe, I don’t see any other bolts or screws in here, unless it’s hiding somewhere.

(Pardon the debris, I’m taking care of it. it’s a 17 year old car lol)

 

so, if you grab the back end there, it should be able to lift up off the floor.

if not able to lift up from the floor from that cubby, there is still something holding it down to the floor

 

Yep, won’t budge at all. Tried prying it out but felt like something was gonna break.

Is it possible the rear A/C unit would need to be removed? Otherwise, I have no idea. Maybe it’s screwed into/clipped onto the cupholder somehow? It’s so hard to tell. The most important part for me is removing the cupholder though.

I found a guy who’s done a similar mod (albeit 8 years ago), so hopefully he has some idea. Will update if i can get it.

 

nah, you're missing a bolt or a few bolts somewhere along the floor..

the cubby thing should be able to be lifted up, if not...there's something still holding it down


try removing the two bolts up front to the floor
