Trunk Pic?

Could someone who has Nav and Bluetooth do me a HUGE favor and snap a quick pic of your trunk with the floor liner removed? I'm trying to retrofit Bluetooth and would like to see exactly how the module fits. I specifically am interested in the two boxes that appear under the back half of the trunk liner. The one on the right is Nav, and I think on the left is the Bluetooth TCU.

Thanks!

I think there is a pcture like you ask for in the "golf T mod" section of the DIY stuff. That guy pulled part of his liner to do the job from the inside.

The two electrical boxes get VERY hot with the trunk panel installed.

As a test, I removed the floor panel for a day and they were cool to the touch when I got home.

I'm thinking about cutting a circular hole in the panel above the cooling fan and installing a metal speaker grill over it. I could always buy a new trunk floor panel to install when I sell the car, if the grill looks bad.

How expensive is a new trunk floor panel? Anyone know what these two electrical boxes are? Thanks

Ben,
I did get the pic above. However, it would be great if you could get one that's a bit more of a close-up on the box on the right. I can't tell if there's one box that houses the BT, Nav, etc or if there's one underneath???
