Does the JVC company have any help on their website?

Here is few pictures of central panel, cant find factory amplifier for plug Metra harness. I got this message from the seller but I cant find amplifier in central panel, do you know where is located ?

That seller from Redz Audio said me that "One of the amplifier is buried deep in the dash behind the radio. On the old Lincoln Navigator the amplifier was down by the floor in the center of the dash. So the amplifier on the newer Lincoln Navigator should be in the center console.
One of the hardness from the radio is going to the amplifier you just need to follow it. The other is mounted on the sub box in the right rear panel. "
