You're in a thread to do just that, don't bother start a new one.
Just go to photbucket.com or flickr and follow the directions to upload them there. Then take the image code and copy it here.. [IMG]picturelink.jpg[/IMG]

Update: Just got it painted. Now I've got to finish out the tv pods, mount the tv's and install the 8's.
Just finished this as well. Putting this into my boys dually. There are side walls too not pictured. There's another one just like it. They will go back to back.
I'm sure some of you won't like it but... I'm sharing it anyway.

Holy!! I love your setup and cant wait to get mine done. You do have a 4th Gen right? I thought we couldn't mount amps upside down to possible overheating.

OH I see so basically you no longer have any use for the crossovers. I have a lot to learn about Audio. Im taking baby steps though need to get my Sub adding in and I'll go from there.

Did you also relocate your Sub from centered? it looks like its off to the right now. Also did you seal off the trunk area behind the seat with wood as well as a piece of wood in the trunk? Im going to be doing mine soon so Im trying to gather as much info as possible. Thanks.

The sub is still centred. It may look otherwise due to the angle of the shot.
There is piece of 3/4" plywood bolted to the sheet metal behind the seats (trunk side) The voids between the two were filled with expanding foam.
Anything that you try and install on the cabin side will interfere with the mounting of the seat back. (unless it is very thin or you remove material from the seat.)

I cut a piece of 1/2" plywood to fit under the rear deck. It is attached with six connector bolts.
Here is an "upside down" component layout I did before installing everything in the trunk.

The board, with the larger amp attached, is installed first with connector bolts to the plywood sheet (back of rear seats)
The other board is then installed under the rear deck. All the components have to be removed first as this board sits above the trunk torsion bars.
The components are then attached and wired up.
EDIT:
The system has an incredible amount of potential. I have a lot of tweaking to do with my front stage still. As a matter of fact, I should have a couple of new additions coming my way at this very moment.

The mounting boards do not attach to one another. That would be a big mistake as you would be trying to enforce rigidity into the car structure with materials that cannot handle the loads.

i believe boxes like that work very well in maximas..i had 2 hdc3 12's in a 5cuft box tuned to 35hz and it would do 146.6 on the "old" TL..thats 3 batteries and 2 hk401sx's also i took my backseats out for those numbers
Also boxes that arent very high does alot better in trunk..
-ex. my box was like 10" H 34"w and 32" D (dont quote me on that but its something like that) with 80sqin of port area..that box did the best numbers compared to other boxes that was 14-16" H

replace the trunk cardboard with a piece of 1/4" mdf or plywood. then bolt the box down to that with some L brackets.
