Why skip? If you want an every-day driver then buy a Buick.

Default Poorly thought out?

Isn't that why he is posting here to get feedback before taking a blow torch to his car? I think it is called "doing your research".

Default My favourite set-up so far is the Odyssey PC680 in the compartment below the CD-changer...

I've been running the PC680 in the front of the car for the past month or so. So far, I'm really pleased but it has yet to take me through a winter. Assuming it is able to do that, then I will mount it in that compartment.

I think the next best set-up would be to mount one or two under the hat shelf in the back. No one seems to have done this yet.

FYI, I wouldn't even consider the PC680 if you are running any power consuming accessories in the car.
