adivce on amp, and subs in the trunk needed

i just purchased an MTX amp, and two MTX 12 in subs. could somebody post pics of how they positioned their amp and subs in the trunk. i don't want to screw them onto the board that covers the spare tire. do you guys have pics or suggestions? i want it to look good.

thanks

Well, most likely you want to put your subs in an enclosure. The will determine a lot of where they can be placed.

I took down the carpet in the rear of the trunk then put up a board and screwed one of my amps to that then cut the carpet around the amp so it still looked nice.My other amp is mounted right to my sub box. The i just pushed the box all the way back in the trunk. Still have alotta room!

my setup isnt anything special right now but for a basic idea of somthing easy that works nice...i mounted my amp right behing where the center console in the back seat pulls down and have a neon mounted in the trunk above the arm rest hole which is a nice affect at night, keep the arm rest pulled down and you see the glow of the amp lights lit up even more by the neon and turn the box towards the seat and it looks pretty nice for people inside the car...just an idea for ya if you can make sense of what i just said lol
