PCM3 Amp Questions

2009 C2S w/ Bose High End Sound Packace, Bluetooth, PCM Voice Control, Vanigation Modul, Universal Audio Interface, and XM Radio

1 - Where is the amp? I understand for 2009 and later, it is under the passenger seat. I see something in there but is that the amp or maybe just the nav unit?
2 - What is the amp part number? In my 2010 Katalog, it shows the amp as item #2 but shows no part listing. See pictures below.
3 - Anyone know the amp pinout configuration? In this link, Serg124 shows amp pins on the head unit. This is really really weird... I believe my 2009 has the complete, Bose package sans integral phone, but I am not sure Serg124 has the same setup as mine... really odd.

I can find very very little on this for the 997.2 and the darn Katalog is a mess. Some posts said the amp is integral to the head unit.... is this a lesser, lower model configuration?

I am going to replace my head unit and amp. I already did the speakers and while there was

No list or description for item 2 that I think is the amp and is located under the passenger seat.

chrisgoman is an unknown quantity at this point
If you don't want to replace the PCM 3.0 HU, you can just replace the amp with an Audison Prima line amp/dsp like AP8.9bit. Folks seem to think the best bang for the buck is the changing out the amp.

I don't understand how this unit connects to the head unit. I checked Audison's website and could not find anything there.

I just ordered the Alpine nav with CD and a Mosconi amp... I am just going to rip it all out and just do it they way I know how. I just can't get good, reliable information.
