Default Amp goes where?

I some some questions about the my upcoming install of a sound system on my 2013 Street Glide. The head unit is Aquatics, a compact Kenwood amp, with Polk 6.5 Speakers in the batwing, and Polk 6x9s in the lids. Where will I put the amp? Also, what gauge speaker wire should I use.....Any help would be great
Regards
John

Have you already purchased this amp? If so can you return it? You're not going to be pleased at all with its performance.

But as SB said. Very weak amp for the speakers you have.

The title of the thread brought back memories:



Sorry I couldn't resist. Bocephus and Kid Rock are playing Cadillac... at this very moment.

If he returns that Kenwood y'all feel like helping him through a SS PN4.1000d install in the fairing

Soundstream pn4.1000d for a great budget amp.
