I read various posts here and found that the instructions could be quite confusing without pics. I would like to thank certain members who tried their best to show me the way. Well I finally did and as a payback, I would like to make it easy for anyone else who wants to do this simple mod. It is only simple now that I have done it!

1. Open your trunk. Remove the liner covering your spare tire. Look at the liner to your left held by 4 or 5 plastic tabs. Remove the tabs and lift up the liner. You don't have to remove the liner directly in front of you covering the gas tank (as I did). The 4 red dots and the 2 screwdriver point to the approx location of where the amplifier is behind the metal wall....
2. You will now see 4 screws in 4 holes. Two of the screws may be partially hidden by wires. Loosen but do not completely remove the screws. Once loose, you can use your left hand to grab the black box behind the wall and lift it up to release out of the 4 holes.....
3. Now turn the box upside down. On the other side you will see a black knob with a + sign. I am assuming you will turn it up. I turned mine up about 2 or 3 notches below maximum level.
4. Turn on your CD player and adjust accordingly. Like gotzaGTO, I totally love the stock system now. That bass is now pretty serious.
Hope this helps!
Edit/Sxty8goats: Now that you have seen where it is, you can also loosen the carpet on the side that the amp sits and reach around underneath the carpet. Locate the Amp by feel and adjust the gain with your finger tips. If this doesn't work for you, then go through all the listed steps to locate the amp/gain.
