Where did you all mount your CD Changer? I have a 04 Crown Vic and the only spot where we could mount it was right ON my light in the trunk, so now at night I cant see my tunk light because my CD changer is over it.
I couldnt put it where the factory changer is because the cable isnt long enough? Should I try an re-position the trunk light over the left or right?

I've tried to reloc the trunk light. There's no where else for it to go. I ended up bying a light for an RV that can fit in one of the oval holes and re-wired it to the factory harness. It's actually brighter...

Good luck

The factory 6-CD changer is above the rear fender well on the driver's side.

My auxillary 10 disc changer is over the light, too. I guess I'll have move it elsewhere when the BAP goes there.

I have no idea. I buy stupid stuff like that from boat salvagers and rv closeout stores and have it lying around for different projects/installs. I happened to find one that fit in my 'stock'.
I know you'll find something that'll fit in an RV store. The back bump fit in the oval hole and the face covered the hole. 2 self tap screws and 2 butt crimps later and alakazam, let there be light!
