Quite easy to do really. I've been thinking about a permanent place for the amp for a while now too.

Probably start that when the weather gets a little warmer. :smiley:

I like the bottom two installs, but it rather defeats the purpose of having a build by reducing the ability of putting anything in your boot to...well....zero!!

Sorry i took it most of you would have seen similar types of builds to these before. Having been involved with caraudio since the mid/late 80s i sometimes make the mistake that people know certain things for granted.
Theres an infill section, then a cover that goes over them. As you can see in the photos the white parts are sunk in. These get grill/infill section and a carpet like material cover is then fitted on top. I did not see much point in showing these as all you will see is what looks like an empty boot  :wink: and i had thought most people would have prob seen similar to these many times before. 

This is the infill on the second off last one i posted..


And the last one i posted.



cover fitted on top of last one ( I have not include the cover photo of the second off last one but its basically the same just fits better lol :wink:)


As you can now see the boot is still usable.  :happy2:
The other advantage is its very stealth.

They're fantastic Snoopy!

What kind of cost are you talking for something like them?
