Is the amp missing mounting "feet?" I can't see where screws are supposed to mount the amp down.

Overall, the install looks very amateur at best. I've seen worse. Much worse. Consider yourself lucky for that.

I would request a refund on the install labor and take my business else where.

I took it back and they refunded me all the money, but now i have a mauled trunk and they insist they did a proffesional job and wont replace it, I called corporate and there standing by the store manager, so im waitin for a call by the district manager. They said thats how they would mount any amp, yup rip up the carpet, and dunt use an already excisting ground, that would b too smart, lets drill 5 screws in the bottom, that would be the best cause we are always right and the consumer is always wrong
