Default Have you upgraded your stereo gear?

I saw a post from a member "big clint" about putting an alpine pdx v5. He posted some pictures, but I can't open them.... I'm looking specifically for anyone who has done the alpine amplifier swap. I bought an alpine pdx v9, and I wanted some opinions from others. I would like to know if the v9 fits the same spot as the factory amp? Also, will the factory speaker wires work, or do I need to upgrade that also? And if you gave pictures, I would like to see those too.

Thx!

It will fit, but will take some coercing and test fitting to get it right.

Sorry no pics, but I have stacked TWO Rockford Fosgate PBR amps in that factory location.

That PDX9 is a great amp.
