I have mine standing straight up behind the right wheel - pretty common place and doesn't take up too much room. The glover compartment is a cool place if you don't mind lossing what little space is there and screwing around with it...

I'm assuming you're talking about behind the right rear wheel - if so it's not flush with the inside of the car, it's about 3-4 inches off (just enough room to put a can of tire shine stuff between the changer and the side of the car
) No digicam, but hi-tech ASCII coming at ya!

I'd worry about the longevity of the changer mounted to the box. The vibrations from the box even if the unit is dampened quite good will no doubt cause it to fail before it's time.

BTW in my other thread you said you got Kappa's in the door and even though you cut metal you didn't need to. How much effort went into getting them in and how much power are you running to them?

ODL, do you have any pics of it? Is it mounted or is it basically just in there? We tried it on my friends Integra and that was next to impossible without hacking away at jsut about everything, however our glove boxes look like they could fit one much better.

Mark I'll just show you mine. Me and ODL have the exact same setup.

What kind of changer? ODL and JOON525 are using Pioneer...I'm sure my Alpine will fit because that's almost as small as you get. If your trying to get a 10 disc Kenwood in there that would be wayyyyy harder.

Snoopy- how many CD's does ur changer have?

I have a 6-disc and it fits under the passenger seat. I was sick of running to the trunk to change CD's from my other car.

BTW- u guys think my Changer will "breakdown" sooner from the road vibrations since it now sits on the floor of the car?

I have the Alpine 6-disc changer, and it barely fits in there.
