BeAlLsTaR13 Posted March 17, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2011 ok well the box is complete as of now, and i test fit it in the trunk however, where i had planned to have my battery rack it is a little too long by like 2" so i had to angle it to get the box in all the way, which having to angle the batt made me lose amp room i lost just enough amp room to where i cant mount both amps flat, one has to go on the back of the box, now im going to chose to mount my 4 channel on the back of the box (for obvious reasons) and have my 3500 mounted on the floor anyone have any ideas on how i can help prevent the least possible vibrations to the amp on the back of the box? without looking like complete crap at the same time? pics later tonight, im gonna be going out for my birthday all day but it isnt the best either, its 55º here (feels like 90 compared to the 20s) and sunny, PERFECT day to be able to actually finish but i ran out of time today so i did not get it playing, the grand am shall, and will play tomorrow Team Sundown Audio**CURRENT** -- 2012 Scion tC Build Click Here **OLD** -- 2002 Pontiac Grand AM Build Click Herecheck them out, slap me a comment2002 Pontiac Grand AM SE 2.2l 4 cylinder ecotec.-------------------------------------------------------------------Head Unit - Alpine CDA-9887Subs - 2x Z 12 v.2s - v.3 + NS Soft partsAmplifier - Sundown Audio SAZ-3500DEnclosure - 3.33 Cubes tuned to 34.66hzFront Stage - JBL P660c 6.5" ComponentsRear Deck - Powerbass 4xl 6.5" Mid-RangeFront Stage Amplifier - Sundown Audio SAX-100.4DWires - Kicker Hyperflex 1/0, KnuKonceptz 1/0, Knu 4 and 8 Gauge, Kicker RCAsElectrical - 275 AMP DC Power H/O Alternator, XS Power S3400, XS Power D2700Videos - http://www.youtube.com/user/BeAILsTaR13------------------------------------------------------------------- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BeAlLsTaR13 Posted March 18, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2011 Alright i had to change a few things around, but first i threw the box in to test fit, it fits but the 17" depth i went with was a little too much but i expected that so i cant do my amp rack plan so i have to go with something different but heres pics first i ran my power and ground wires to the batt: Box is in: now as you can see i had to angle the battery: which doesnt interfere too much, i actually like the look of it TBH but i just have to change a few things around Team Sundown Audio**CURRENT** -- 2012 Scion tC Build Click Here **OLD** -- 2002 Pontiac Grand AM Build Click Herecheck them out, slap me a comment2002 Pontiac Grand AM SE 2.2l 4 cylinder ecotec.-------------------------------------------------------------------Head Unit - Alpine CDA-9887Subs - 2x Z 12 v.2s - v.3 + NS Soft partsAmplifier - Sundown Audio SAZ-3500DEnclosure - 3.33 Cubes tuned to 34.66hzFront Stage - JBL P660c 6.5" ComponentsRear Deck - Powerbass 4xl 6.5" Mid-RangeFront Stage Amplifier - Sundown Audio SAX-100.4DWires - Kicker Hyperflex 1/0, KnuKonceptz 1/0, Knu 4 and 8 Gauge, Kicker RCAsElectrical - 275 AMP DC Power H/O Alternator, XS Power S3400, XS Power D2700Videos - http://www.youtube.com/user/BeAILsTaR13------------------------------------------------------------------- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
