Thanks for the kind words! I guess I might have worded it wrong, it's not so much the look of the box with the amp mounted but the problem that you mentioned with the vibration and box flex. At the time I really wanted to just get everything done so unfortunately I wasn't really thinking about that when I decided to mount the amp on top. Oh well, live and learn it'll be moved to a spot on the floor soon. My trunk carpet has an annoying habit of sliding around so everything's getting secured down soon!
