Nice work.
Trunk setup could be tightened up some, but overall, nice project.

thanks everyone.
nice clean build lovin it the trunk could use some work tho your wasting space like that.
I put a piece of plywood behind the seat inside the trunk and bolted up my amps to it, and disconnected the cable release from the trunk so if you need the key or alarm remote to pop the drunk and if you take off the seat thieves will have to finagle a way around the wood that has about 8 nuts and bolts holding it same with the amps bolted to the plywood...all about making it difficult and time consuming right?

that's right where my Polk tweeters are, and them some mid-highs down lower in the door behind the arm rest.
They sound decent there.

question, how did you bolt the plywood to the trunk? I looked at the back of the rear seats and thats all metal so i didnt want to screw anything to that.

That's one way, or you could put a piece of wood on the other side of the metal frame and bolt the two pieces together that way. Might affect your rear seat being able to fold all the way back(upright), though.
i put the seat down and the 2 angled metal pieces dont like like their bracing much there i peeleded back the carpet there and bolted it to the angled sheetmetal 3 bolts on each side then put carpet back to cover it ...
if I had to do it again besides cutting the wood more accurately i would use washers with the bolts and nuts because they sink into the plywood VERY easily. PS its a two man job. PSS. i mounted my cousins subs the same way in his purple v6
and he has the old school RF amps which are heavier and everythings been holding up fine for over a year on both cars.

Ok, I know what you mean. I did the same thing with a thin piece of wood to mount my distribution block and ground splitter there. Ima try and attack that sometime next month and update how that goes. Thanks for all the suggestions and comments everyone!!!!

Be sure to take pics of how you end up redoing your amp setup, it's always helpful to have reference for these types of projects.
