Kristofer,

This may reach you a little late, and may not be applicable to you (you
probably carry your spare tyre) but here goes :

WHERE TO PUT A CD-CHANGER

I have recently added a 10-CD changer to my system and I installed it in a
very perculiar manner. I BlueTacked (no drilling required, very secure) it
onto the flat panel where the spare tyre usually sits on. Where did the
spare go? Nowhere! It stayed righ t at home where it had remained for the
last three and a half years! No, I have yet to get a puncture but my
fingers are still crossed... You can also mount it vertically on the board
covering the jack in
the left hand corner of the boot but it may be hi nderance when you want to
access your jack.

Another place to place the changer is behind the passenger seat like for
the amp as described above but as changers are generally thicker than amps,
this might reduce the leg-room for your passengers. If passengers are
unimportant, you may even want to co nsider slinging it under the glove
box.



The above exerpt was taken from the Hi-fi Page of my web site at the
address below.

Hope it helps.
