Any info on 88 Cougar Premium sound system?

Hello. I just wanted to know if anyone here knows anything about the amplifier placement/power  of the premium sound systems that they put in the 88' Cougar XR-7s. I can't get to my car since it's in my uncles garage right now. So can anyone tell me, where the 80w amp is located and which channels it's hooked up to, and how I can go about rewiring/replacing it for use with a new HU. I've looked around the internet quite a bit but haven't found any tech specs or info on it, and I'd like to know so I can buy the right stuff for it. Thanks for any help!

Have a look in the Audio & Other Aftermarket Electronics section The factory amp should be in the trunk under the package tray

I honestly dont think you could exceed the cost of a new car buy installing new *stock* parts everywhere in your coug our tbird. Its just plain impossible. You could revamp the entire drivetrain/engine/suspenstion and still come out ahead.
