Very nice install and I really like it.

The only thing I want to comment about is the amp location. With the amp upside down, it can't properly cool itself. The heat will radiate back up into the amp rather than off the top cooling fins like it should.

any specs from building those boxes? i've wanted the exact setup for awhile now.
I dont really have any exact specs. I kinda did a guess and check thing but it went pretty fast and easy. Just took a few measurements, tested it, adjusted it, and built it.

looking good...im thinking about moving my amp up there too now.
It looks good but not the best place for proper cooling.
All the heatsink heat is being transfered to the circuit board
and the internals instead of rising up and away from the amp
when properly mounted. Any quality amplifier shows this
as improper mounting in the instruction manual. It is very nice.

I mounted mine straight up and down for cooling purposes but would really like to get it up and out of the way. It's so pretty to show off that I hate to hide it though![8D]

I was going to ask the same thing about the specs. I have a vert so this would be the best setup since I have less space in the trunk due to the vert and the motor. good job
