Hi guys
Here are a few pics of the small boot install i am doing, all it is really is a box that will house my amps, will be covered in the same stuff as the sub box and there will be holes for the amps to come through.
The first bit of wood to cut out: -
markings on the boot cover to see where the sub sits: -
The amps i have on a temporary bit of wood: -

This is how far i got on the last post.
I have now finished , these ae the other stages i went through: -
The supports for the amps
Started to cut out the holes for the amps, using a carboard template i had made.
Both Holes now cut out and lid in place
Underside view
Test fit in boot, only a few mods required.
Inside all wired up and ready for carpeting.
Carpet cut roughly to shape
I then cut it down to the right shape and stapled the fabric to the box.
Finished and in car
Any questions, comments are welcome. (i know its not spectacular!!)

top job nice too see lots of pics aswell
might be worth cutting those bolts down on your 6x9s as they stick out quite a bit. also stick the wires onto the back/side of the backboard so they arn't just hanging down, looks nicer and les chance of falling of the speakers
