Removing stock amp, How to? Options

[reko]

I've managed to unplug my stock oem amplifier (from a GT-S) from the two connectors but there seems to be 3 bolts (2 on driver side and 1 on passenger side) that needs to be removed in order to take it out...

I gotta change it since it has burned and i hate driving for half an hour twice a day without music... but i can't find how to remove the god damn plastic that goes from the dash (it starts near the climate controls) all the way down to the floor and surrouds the shifter knob... i removed every single plastic except the dash and this one... and cant find anything...

Pic is from a JDM but still, its the same thing i'm talking about



Any infos or tips anyone on how to remove it?

Are you talking about just the piece around the shifter? Just grab the bottom of the leather boot, under the plastic by the center console and pull up. It just snaps right out. Then pull it back away from the radio (this takes a bit of force). Then there are two screws under that piece, remove those, and then pull that top piece out too. It's that simple. Remember to disconnect the cords for your cig lighter, the light ring around it, your emergency flashers, and your clock.
