Stinky,

I've made shelf from 6mm pvc, that sits on top of this ridge.

I only need the height of a power amp, head unit and crossovers to fit :)

these are about 2 - 3 inches tall max.

Cheers

Hey Ed,
I had amps under a bench on each side, you cant hide them becuase the amps have to sit back a little since the floor slopes up under the seat.
they were there for 5 years and neaded to be vacuumed frequently as the heatsink fins fill up with brown fibre stuff from the seat.
sometimes you would feel the amp with your but when you went over bumps but it was not a major hassle, its not going to come up through the seat and get stuck in your but however it might scratch the amps
try to get skinny long amps that are small and efficient, not too long but, measure the width of each side between the brackets and trans hump.

Hey Leon,

So your amps sat behind the ridge in the seat?

I am going down to the trimmers today and going to measure up my seat, I may bring it back to the car this weekend so I can measure exactly how much room is needed for the amps.

Ive now got 2 amps, crossovers for splits and headunit under there.. better measure first I think...

If i cant hide them, may as well make them a feature...

thanks

Have you seen the neat install in the EK ute in the current issue of Street Machine?

Head unit mounted on the drivers visor and a small slot cut in the dash with the player mounted out of sight behind, that's what I'll be doing.

Ed

it's nice huh!

I just cabled my Head unit to Face for a remote mount as well, cant go behind the dash as I have too much electrical stuff behind there.

easy job... use PC ribbon cable.

Cheers

Finally fitted the CD player on the weekend, just  cut a hole in the speaker grill(sacrilege ?) and plonked it in , easy to reach easy to see (and probably easy to pinch i suppose)
