1989 Turbo II Door Subs/Speakers - Where the heck is the amp?

Where is the AMP for the Door Subs/Speaker in a 1989 Turbo II.

I don't want to hear "replace it" or "remove it" I just want to know where it is.

I searched for a while, and no one seems to have ever answered this question completely.

(Just troubleshooting it cutting in/out once in a while...probably soldering or something).

Thanks.

I dont know about in the doors but on the s4's shock towers the amps are really tiny and there are just behind the speaker itself.

Coupes with audio systems Type 1, 2, 3 & 4 have a door woofer amp just below the glove box as well as in coupe type 1 audio systems there is a front speaker amp located bolted to the bottom of the factory radio
Thanks to Icemark

i found it, guess its on the driver side on these canadian turbo's.

Checked all the soldering connetions and its fine...so I guess the wiring is bad =/

Alright, i found the problem. It is the RELAY on the amp wearing out. I am just going to find a suitable replacement relay and solder it in, problem solved.
