Has anyone mounted their amp behind the rear seat? If so, how? I know it's rather hollow behind that carpeted space in the trunk just behind our seats. I have a RF P300-1 which is small and I was thinking maybe fitting some MDF board back there? What do you guys think?
i bolted mine down straight into the back seat. its pretty durable, 4-5 years now and they havent moved or sagged. im running jl 500/1 and a 300/4. only thing is make sure you set your amp up on the correct settings, because its a b*t(h to be upside down in the trunk with a lil mirror and a stubby flathead to adjust crossover points.
i took out the thin cardboard piece thats behind the seats in the trunk and replaced it with a piece of mdf.
i mounted it to the side of my box :-p
but i have seen setups where they took a piece of wood and just screwed it into the back of the oem flimsy board and bolted the amp to that
X2^ two amps and a capacitor, works like a charmQuote:

On the other G I have the mono and 4Ch under each seat.

i wouldnt do that but its your ride..
its only help on by those snap clips if i remember right..
my amp is pretty effing heavy though.
Had mine back there. end of story my amp was laying on the floor behind my box (where i couldnt see it) with the positive centimeters away from touching my negative on my cap. (btw dont get a cap waste of money especially with our small alt it well just over work the alt)
Nice guys, thanks. I was leaning towards getting MDF and mounting it to that. I would rather have my amp and cap mounted in the car instead of on my box, now that I basically wont be getting any more amps, I have changed my subs quite often in the past. Never liked drilling holes into the box for everything but the subs.
I is heavy, the clips have been holding up no prob I also have the box there holding it up. I like the clean look of it.Quote:
