AMPLIFIER PREPARATION AND MOUNTING (2018.5 Turbo S & 2019+ Models)
Before installing the dual amplifier plate with the amplifier(s) in position, you must prepare the mounting area
in the vehicle to accept the plate. The amplifier plate is installed centered, up high under the dash. Use the
information in this section to determine which installation steps are specific to your vehicle and options.
NOTE
- These instructions assume both amplifiers and all speakers are present in a full Stage 5 or Stage 3
System. If not all components are present in your system, this makes upgrading much easier.
STEP 1 – DETERMINE YOUR MODEL’S OPTIONS FOR DUAL AMPLIFIER PLATE MOUNTING
Factory-Installed (OEM) Amplifier ONLY
• If you have ONLY
the OEM installed amplifier and are re-using it, you must remove it from the top of the
factory plate and reinstall on the bottom side of the plate to allow clearance for the other amplifier plate.
If you are NOT re-using the OEM amplifier you can disconnect the amplifier and remove the amplifier
and mounting plate. You will still reuse (2) 10mm bolts to secure the dual amplifier plate with this kit.
Dynamix
®
ECU ONLY
• If you have ONLY
the Dynamix ECU then set the
ECU and ECU mounting bracket back in the original
placement ensuring the wiring intended for the
amplifier harness is routed through the gap area at
the forward section of the bracket. Loosely reattach
only the two (2) 10mm rear bolts for the ECU bracket
(nearest the dashboard) as shown in Figure 10-4. *It
is only important the ECU bracket is back in place for
trial fitting of the dual amplifier plate. It will not have
its final reassembly at this step.
Factory-Installed (OEM) Amplifier AND Dynamix
®
ECU
•
If you have the Dynamix ECU AND the OEM installed amplifier and planning on re-using the OEM
amplifier, then the OEM amplifier will need to be relocated elsewhere to make room for the amplifier
plate provided in this kit. If you are NOT re-using the OEM amplifier you can disconnect the amplifier
and remove it. Loosely reattach only the two (2) 10mm rear bolts for the ECU bracket (nearest the
dashboard) as shown in Figure 10-4. *It is only important the ECU bracket is back in place for trial fitting
of the dual amplifier plate. It will not have its final reassembly at this step.
NO
Factory-Installed (OEM) Amplifier OR Dynamix
®
ECU
• If you have NO
Dynamix ECU or OEM installed amplifier, use the (2) T40 screws provided in the MB
Quart RZR Stage 3 kit as shown in Figure 10-5. These screws attach the amplifier plate in the two
identified holes as shown in Figure 10-6.
