the only places that is close enough depending on the size of the changer is under one of the front seats or on the pax side mounted on the hump.

I put a 10 stack Sony in the rear compartment. I pre-fitted it, took measurements and then sprayed a little of that foam stuff as a base. Then, I sat a small piece of metal to which I could attach the stacker. When it all dryed, I installed the stacker. Three years and no problems. I am talking about the space where the compartment is lockable. It is very easy to change cartriges also. Wiring wasnt that bad.
