Amp rack

What do you guys think of my spur of the moment amp rack? I cut 3 vent slots were the rear seat arm rest is. I think it looks pretty good.

No rattles, i made sure it was tight. And it being fully carpeted keeps it from making noise when vibrating against something.

I need to do something like that in my car, it looks so ghetto. Everything is attached to my sub box. Two amps, fuse boxes, xm tuner.

I was wondering the same thing. It's a very nice setup, but where are the subs. I KNOW your trunk ain't THAT deep.

Yeah its 3 amps. Kenwood is for the 6x9's. Alpine is for the 6.5's and tweeters. MTX is for the 2 12's. I have a separate kenwood eq under my h/u.

Nice, very nice. Too bad I can't do that, my seats fold down. My amp for all my speakers is under my seat.

You can still mount it on the back of your seat. Wire is flexable, just run it down under the fabric to were the hinge is, then go from there.

I did that with my Saturn back in the states. One of the amps shorted out, had to get a new amp. I couldn't add 3 amps, maybe 2 amps, crossover & cap. Not three.
