You do realize that the rear trunk gets hot from the muffler and the engine.
Make sure you have plenty of ventilation there before you fry the amps. I would say it's not too late to move them to the front trunk. |

I have big amps in my rear trunk too and they are fine temperature wise. If it does get too hot, just put a layer of reflective deadener on the underside of the trunk. Amps like those pgs and my mcintosh work better when warm anyway.... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)
Loving the install (as you know) very very tidy having no cables on show!!! |

Figured I would post the front trunk pics. I put the 2 rsdc122 in a box that fit every angle of the front trunk. If you notice i even had to notch the corners in the front to fit between the headlamp buckets. This box is designed in 4D lol (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) I think it came out great, and it fits like a glove. With each 12 running on its own XS2500 and the whole soundstage in the front, It sounds freakin awesome. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/party.gif)

I have not yet mounted the tweets, but the rsdc 6.5's sure look sexy in Morphs kick panels. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif)

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/popcorn[1].gif) I removed the heat from this car. I used a rubber cap from the depot and a tiny amount of sound deading on each side (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Attached image(s) |
