      An AMP isn't a straight fit for the OEM headunit. You'll need to either splice wires from the existing loom to make it work (see my post in technical guides) or buy an aftermarket headunit that has output's.

      Quick question, why would you want to put an amplifier on your dash and not hide it out of the way somewhere? How are you planning to mount it to the dash?

          I think you may be confused as to the purpose of a subwoofer/amplifier and what they are.

          Start from the beginning. What are you trying to do and why?

                In the middle, sort of oblong shaped with a black button thing behind it?

                This is the spot where the high pass speaker is fitted when you have the Hi-Fi upgrade.

                    If you have a speaker cover there it's likely you already have the hi-fi upgrade pack.

                      Is the small button on top of the cover a CC sensor?
                      Can you access the sensor by removing the cover?

                      Thanks
