Im trying to conserve as much trunk space as possible, and adding one 10 inch tucked in the passenger side corner, and some components up front. My idea was to just get away with a 4 channel amp a channel for each component and bridge the last two for the sub.

I want to build some sort of amp rack and holder for my component stuff to go where my spare tire is.... seems to be ample hidden room there. Was wondering if anyones done this and maybe a pic request of how your amp rack looks.

Thanks,
Blix

 

There is actually a member that has done just that.
I can not remember his name though, but if you look
in the Car Audio Installs section, you will be able to find it.

Thats how I found it, I was searching for some ideas and by
looking at all the other installs, I saw it.

Have fun on your quest for the Holy Grail.

 

I threw this together last summer. Thats an old school 4 channel Autotek Street Machine and a mono Alpine squeezed in there. The Alpine hangs out into the spare tire bulge perfectly. The MDF is held in there with the bolt from the spare tire.

 

That's how I have mine with a mdf and the spare tire bolt holding it down.

 

awesome... thanks for the tip... never woulda though to secure it with the spare tire hole...

ps. mp2k... if you were my apprentice i might have to fire you for that wiring job

 

I had my head unit, components, sub, and no amps at the beginning of last summer. I needed some music I could hear with all the top down driving to come so I pulled the amps outta my beater. It's wired with a lot of stuff pulled out of my 'extra system wire' box, but it's sized correctly and not nearly as rigged as some stuff I've seen elsewhere. The ground has been moved from the bolt to a bare metal chassis ground. It's the best sounding system I've yet to put in any of my cars so I'm not too worried about some wires hardly anyone will see. It's all going to get prettified once I get the amps and build the enclosure that I want, but until then I'm happy with it

 

just the electrician coming out in me givin ya a hard time dude...

 

this is how i did it...no special shape just a rectangle piece of wood..
