Going to be installing a Lowband Maratrac in the next few days into a 2005 civilian Impala where is a good spot for the draw unit (actual radio brain)? Also any tips on what to look out for on installing this and also a CDM1550 in these cars? thanks in advance.

I'll second the seatback...had two spectra's and a FS SmartSiren mounted on mine.
Do not make Sig angry...he'll just keep ringing the bell.
