Does anyone know the dimensions of the secret compartment? I'm going to be adding a cd changer and wanted to put it in the secret compartment if possible. I know the standard honda/alpine changers will fit, but I was looking at a sony 10 disc?? Thanks!

It may fit but unless the CDs are loaded from the top you will never get the cartridge in or out.

I would mount the changer facing up(vertically instead of horizontally), so the cds would load from the top.

I have the Sony 10 disc changer and wanted to put it in the secret compartment. It wouldn't fit. Ended up putting it in the trunk, left side.

The dimensions of the secret compartment are 10" wide (at the top) decreasing to 9.25" at the bottom. The length is about 5" and the depth is about 6.25". I installed the Alpine changer here but the compartment required some modifications. The changer is 10" wide.

Jpit and Xviper: Thanks for the info. I want 10 discs instead of 6, so I want to go with the Sony changer. Any ideas on other places to hide it? I want to keep all the trunk space that I have?? Has anyone mounted one under the seat? I only plan to change discs once a month or so..
