| 2005 GT Shaker 1000 system [message #783789] |

I have said car with said sound system. I'm of an age (62) where I really
don't need all the bass produced by the amp and speakers in the trunk, and
want the extra room. I'm therefore thinking of selling the trunk mounted
woofer (boom box? whatever it's called).
Question - is it simply a matter of unbolting the unit and unplugging a few
wires? Also, can it be used with the Shaker 500 system by simply plugging
in a few wires, or must the complete radio (Shaker 1000) be installed as a
unit. My neighbor has a V6 with the Shaker 500, and I'd like to give them a
good deal on my woofer, if it is a simple plug and bolt operation.
TIA for any help!

Very simple removal... couple of harnesses and a couple of bolts... I
believe a 15mm (could be wrong) but I know a deep well socket is needed
for one of them... LOL! I removed mine for the weight savings... saves
close to 70 pounds! LOL!

Do you know if it'll plug and bolt into a system with the Shaker 500?

Sorry... That I don't know... But if I had to guess I would say
probably not. Perhaps someting with more Shaker 500 knowledge can
comment...

I'm afraid you may be correct. Thanks for the reply.
