    Fitting an amp to the car radio

    I will be changing out my old cassette / radio in my 1999 disco tomorrow.
    I have bought a second hand LR cd / radio from Discovery spares. It comes with an amplifier.
    The question I wish to ask the forum is where do I fit the amp to?
    It is sitting in the post office as we speak so I have not even seen it yet.
    Regards Nick.

    The stock disco amp fits under the passenger seat.

    I stuck mine to the sub in the boot. That way when I go camping I just unplug 3 plugs and it's all out. No risk of water damage either (not that I do many river crossings lol)

    amp

    Thanks guys, Turns out the amp under the seat is for the speakers.
    I was trying to get the radio to recieve better.
    Discovery spares on Ringwood have an amp for $25.00 that fits above the rear RH window. That is what boosts the antenna signal.
    I am fitting a LR CD player/radio in place of my old cassette job.
    All good now, thanks for all your input.
    Regards Nick.
