first take the panel off below the steering wheel, should be 2 screws, then you take off that whole panel above the steering wheel and around the a/c & stereo about 8-10 screws, be careful when you take it off, the steering column is in the way, you might tilt it down to help get it out.[/align]

use the seat bolt but make sure that you run the wire so that if you move the seat it wont rip the wire off or catch on the seat track or someone wont catch it on their foot getting in the truck. you can use one of those crimp on connectors make sure its big enough for the bolt to go thru

Ok , thats what i did I have a Big U crimp on the end of the wire and i put it on the Seat mount bolt in the back and it works quite nicely. I'm thinking thought, right now all i have is a single 10" sub (cheap brand(pyle)), i was wondering what you guys think. Should i do two 10" Infinitys or one 12" Infinity? both are $99.99can were i would be getting them.

thanks
