Default 2GS Amp Install

How are you guys installing the amp on back of the rear seats? Wanted to see what my options are from those who have done it.

Thanks.

I pulled out the back of the seat and screwed a board to the cross beams so that when you mount the amp on the back wall of your trunk, it will actually be secure.

Default Squeaky squeak sqeak...

I have had to completely remove my boards that my amp's were installed to because it was causing a high pitched squeaking sound. It was literally driving me nuts. I believe it was the screws going into the cross member frame, and whenever I would be driving, small chassis flexes I believe were rubbing with the screws. I have put up with this for over 3 years not knowing where it was coming from. Best buy did the install by the way. I finally got fed up with it today and pulled out my rear seats, rear deck , etc. Then I went driving and guess what... no squeaks! God I am glad to finally get rid of that problem. Anyways now I have to decide how to mount the damn amps again. have any of you guys had the same problem that I had?

i'm dealing with the same problem right now. I don't want to give up my spare tire space but I want to mount my amps somewhere else other than on the rear parcel shelf. I want to save that space for my subs and a bigger box (the box a shop built me is too small for the subs I have now). I'm thinking about building a false floor on either side of the trunk by drilling in a piece of MDF on both sides (keeping the middle clear) and then building up from that.

has anyone else done it this way?

anyone? bueller?
