Alternate Mac Delete Mount

Here's an alternate mount that I've built for my Mac delete. I wanted both components to mount behind the driver's seat to leave the passenger side free for other mods (satellite TV, beer keg mount, etc). Luckily, there is enough room to slip the wiring harness under the console cover so no cutting required.

Spent too many weeks and shop visits getting this right :bored My machine shop can churn these out now if anyone else is interested.

GTED, go to the McIntosh web site. All your questions will be answered there except about the sub.

Yes, it would be a true statement, if I were smart enough to tell which model it is in our car, and our "helpful" Owner's Manual doesn't specify. :ack

You did a wonderful job; I particularly enjoyed seeing my subwoofer enclosure so well integrated into the package.

Thank you for sharing

Takes care

GTED, Mac only makes one car amp. Check the website. You can download the data. I think you're in the Midwest. There are no sales sites or service centers for Mac left in the Midwest that I could find.

Here are a couple pictures of it installed. Sorry this took so long, my car was in the shop for some last minute warranty work.

The Ford Console is $1300 to $1700 depending if you can get a discount at the dealer. The one shown above is one of my Carbon Fiber units,, They are less expensive than the Ford units. The CF unit is a nice compliment to the CF seats.

Thanks Stormy,
I knew the stock one was way over priced.
I could not remember if you had one or not. Post up a link of photos so we can see what you have or send me a pm.

The CF pieces are BEAUTIFUL, I wanted more of a stock look, I got the OEM center piece that came with the non optional radio that provides a pocket. Still was over a thousand bucks...... Looks the SAME as the CF unit but in the matching interior leather.
