the only places that is close enough depending on the size of the changer is under one of the front seats or on the pax side mounted on the hump.

I put a 10 stack Sony in the rear compartment. I pre-fitted it, took measurements and then sprayed a little of that foam stuff as a base. Then, I sat a small piece of metal to which I could attach the stacker. When it all dryed, I installed the stacker. Three years and no problems. I am talking about the space where the compartment is lockable. It is very easy to change cartriges also. Wiring wasnt that bad.

Change the name to Sony and it looks like mine. Works great.
