hey...tomorrow im looking at ripping up my carpet, taking all the sound deadening out and positioning my amp underneath my passenger seat...before i do this has anyone done it before? keen to know your results and thoughts on improvements....the main reason for this is my boot is stripped to create less rear camber so i have nothing to bolt it onto...as well as security (sorta).... thoughts appreciated

Here's mine mounted in the trunk, which I recommend you do.
I used a piece of plywood and painted it black, then I screwed everything onto the board and then screwed the board onto the back of the trunk with some self-tapping metal screws. It's been working great for 3+ years.

Ill have to get pics today after work. My amp is smaller than those pictured in Ken's pic though, so not sure exactly how larger amps would work the way I did it. My amp just powers one 10" sub.Brandon

its running two front speakers and a single sub....not a flash setup, it came with my car so is far from perfect but it works....im reluctant to add more wood to the back...trying to center the weight....not sure if it will make a diff but hey...no harm in trying :D....may end up attaching it to the carpet itself...just need to see what is under there....will get pics today as im doing my tension bush too...hmm snappy shifting at last!JUNGL3

this is what mine looks like mounted:
There are 2 metal strips/brackets behind the cardboard stuff running horizontally that are mounted to the back of the trunk. Then the amp is mounted to the strips/brackets, which is all hidden by my UGLY cardboard. Anyways here are a couple quick shots.
^^ my lovely assortment of ugly cables... I didnt use all the same ones so it kinda looks funny. But it sounds great 8)
