Default Back side panel removal

HOw do i remove the back side panels so i can run my wires?

Would it be a bad idea to mount my amp inside that side panel?

Pull back tire cover out........there are 2 10 mm bolts on the plastic piece dividing the back of car and seats.......once removed pull up on it.......this gives you access to the seat bolts in the back.

Next grab base of back seat and tug up from the front first on one side then on the other side..........this willgive you access to the next seat bolts......

Next decide what side to run the wire and remove the seat on that side......14mm bolts.....

Next pull up the plug in the carpet at the side panel and then use screw driver to push down the release onthe bag hook.... and turn to back of car and then pull straight out......

Next pullout door trim base........that covers the wires going back........

Then grab side panel by the front at the door edge and pull straight out.....there are 10 pins holding it in place........

Then you have a straight shot to the back

There is a lot of room in the panels to fit an amp........you will need to make a holder for it though............but it has been done........

Hope that helps........takes lessthan and hour to take it all out.......after you do it a dozen times it can be done in 5 minutes or less.....LOL

I see a couple problems with mounting the amp behind a panel. 1)that biscuit is going to get hot unless it has fan on it. 2)what happens when you need to adjust the controls? I'm sure there are more reasons but those are 2 off the top of my head.
