IMPORTANT
• Read this Guide completely BEFORE you begin.
BEFORE YOU BEGIN
• Disconnect the battery negative terminal while working on the vehicle.
• DO NOT PLACE THE KEY FOB in the vehicle with the battery connected and the seat airbag wiring disconnected. Doing so will set off the airbag light, and must be reset by your dealer.
• ALWAYS check behind panels and components before drilling, cutting, or screwing into any part of a vehicle.
• This guide covers several different vehicle models and options. Some steps only apply to certain installations. Steps images are labeled with a black bar across the top:
- [6SPK ONLY]
apply only to vehicles equipped with the standard 6 speaker audio system.
- [HIFI/HK ONLY] apply only to vehicles equipped with the upgraded 10 speaker HIFI and
Harmon Kardon audio system. If the vehicle has tweeters in the A-pillar (near the bottom outer corners of the windshield), you have the HIFI or HK systems.
- [SUB ONLY] apply only if you are installing the Integral Audio Subwoofer System
- If there is no label, the step applies to ALL installations
- Because each kit applies to more than one vehicle, your kit may include extra items.
• ARE YOU USING THE CORRECT INSTALL GUIDE? There are two installa-
tion guides: one for installing the amp in the right-rear of the luggage compartment, the other for installing the amp under one of the front seats. This guide is for the Rear Amp Mount kit. (All R55, R57, R58, R59, and ‘07-09 R56 JCW vehicles are Underseat Amp Mount). Com­pare the passenger side of your vehicles boot area to the images below. If your vehicle looks like the image on the left, proceed with this in­stallation guide. If not refer to the Underseat Amp Mount Installation Guide.

Images Not to Scale
A.
PREP VEHICLE
1. REMOVE REAR PARCEL SHELF & FLOOR PANEL
Detach straps (1) and slide the parcel shelf out of guides (2).
Remove the luggage compartment oor panel. The oor panel will not be placed back into the vehicle and can be stored.
2. REMOVE REAR SILL
Locate the three expansion rivets (1) at the lower edge of the rear sill. Remove the center-pin of each expansion rivet with a at screwdriver or panel removal tool. Pry out the base of the expan­sion rivet. Pull the bottom of the rear sill toward the front of the vehicle to clear the luggage “D” rings. Pull the whole panel up­wards, releasing the friction clips (2). Keep the center-pins with the expansion rivets to avoid confusion with similar pins re­moved in later steps.
3. REMOVE RIGHT WHEEL ARCH TRIM (PART 1)
{DOES NOT APPLY TO 2010+] Fold down the rear seats. Lift the seat catch (1) up halfway. Using a 90 degree pick or other ne­edged tool, pry the retaining clips (2) inwards and upwards to release them. Remove the trim piece (3).
NOTE: This step can be tedious. If you are careful, you can re­move the arch trim without removing this trim piece by angling the panel and sliding it over the seat catch.
4. REMOVE RIGHT WHEEL ARCH TRIM (PART 2)
Remove the ve expansion rivets (1). Feed out the Wheel Arch Trim panel (2).
NOTE: When re-installing the panel, make sure to feed the seal (3) over the top of the edge of the trim panel (2).
6
5. REMOVE LEFT WHEEL ARCH TRIM (PART 1)
Remove the luggage compartment light (1) by prying the rear edge down and forward. On some vehicles the light may be reversed— if the rear edge does not release, try the front edge. Unplug the light.
CAUTION: the light can get quite hot!

PREP VEHICLE
6. REMOVE LEFT WHEEL ARCH TRIM (PART 2)
Same as Right Side. Fold down the rear seats. Lift the seat catch (1) up halfway. Using a 90 degree pick or other ne-edged tool, pry the retaining clips (2) inwards and upwards to release them.
Remove the trim piece (3).
7. REMOVE LEFT WHEEL ARCH TRIM (PART 3)
Remove the ve expansion rivets (1). Feed out the Wheel Arch Trim panel (2). Disconnect the 12V plug (4). NOTE: When re­installing the panel, make sure to feed the seal (3) over the top of the edge of the trim panel (2).
Don’t forget to reconnect the 12V plug on reinstall.
8. REMOVE LEFT DOOR SILL TRIM (PART 1)
Using a Torx T-50 bit, remove the seat belt screw (1) where it passes through the rear of the door sill trim.
9. REMOVE LEFT DOOR SILL TRIM (PART 2)
Remove metal seat belt bushing (1) if not removed in the previous step. Pull Rear Side Trim Panel (4) in, releasing clip (3) and freeing tab of Door Sill (2) located behind Side Panel (4).
7
10. REMOVE LEFT DOOR SILL TRIM (PART 3)
[Seat shown removed for clarity] Remove the door seal over the entire length of the right door sill by lifting it up and off. Pull up/loosen the rubber door seal gas­ket along the length of the door. Pull Door Sill Panel (2) inward, releasing clips (3). This requires a rm pull at each of the clip locations. Remove the small trim piece (1) by pulling it toward the rear of the vehicle, releasing spring clip.
