Default HIFI Sound Amplifier Location

My factory installed HIFI sound stereo has developed a problem that I believe is in the amplifier. Issue is I can not locate it in the car. Can someone tell me where the amp is????

Thanks,

Bob

Mine is under the front passenger seat. You have to remove the seat to get to it.

Bob,

As Brian suggested, it is located under the passenger seat - in the area now vacant in the pic below (photo taken during my audio upgrade):

Time to upgrade?

Believe it or not, the Targa's, Cab's and Coupe's all use differant amps with the HiFi Package. The dealer(or somone here) can tell you the correct part numbers....as usual, ask me how I know.
