I just bought and installed the direct XM/Blitzsafe from EAS and couldn't be happier given that I can control it all throught the factory head unit. But, with the H/K amp in the side of the boot it seems there is nowhere to mount the hardware. Anyone have a suggestion?

Here's the link to the hardware

In my 2004 MCS with H/K, I was able to fit the XM Direct in the space adjacent to the H/K amp. Tight, but it fit. As I recall, I had to remove the amp and install the XM Direct up in the cavity, then reinstalled the amp.

 

It's definitely tight, but I was able to slide the Blitzsafe up above the H/K amp and the XM Direct is in front of the amp. The cover barely goes back on and the tight fit actually helps hold the XM Direct in place.

 

either of you have a pic you could post? Thanks

 

I don't have one, but will try today. I say try because it is snowing and I am headed to work. Will post when I get one.

 

I was able to stuff it in there with a little double stick tape and holding it in with the panel but a pic would still be helpful. thanks

 

Well, it took a little bit of time to get to it, but here's the picture. Not much to it. The Blitzsafe is up above the H/K amp where you can't see it in this picture. I just reached up and placed it up there. Nothing holding it other than the wires from the XM Direct. The XM Direct unit looks like it's falling out of there in this picture, but the cover holds it firmly against the amp. It's been there for two years without any noise or vibration and no issues.

 

Thats exactly how I did it only I stuffed a rag under it and a little double stick tape between the XM and H/K amp - thanks
