once all the other pieces were cut out and tested to fit in the car, parts were put togetherimage_url-70312-1336247862.jpg

modified side piece so it will fit in the trunk.i made my design a little tall, so had to accomodate for it

Those front two are gonna load way different than the back pair. Don't think it will make a big difference on low power. What amplifier are you gonna use?

i hope you plan on running all of them bridged on the amp. i wouldn't really recommend you putting 2 on the left channel and 2 on the right.

im going to have the 2 front subs going to a channel and the 2 rears going to the other channel.for each set, i will have them running parallel and have the positive running to the left channel and the negative to the right channel.for the other set, the same thing except the positive will be to the right channel and the negative to the left channel.this is how i had it set up when i was just running two, the positive on the left channel, and negative on the right channel, and it was perfect.had gain set about half and bass boost about 2oclock.

that makes absolutely no sense in my head. it sounds like you're screwing the amp up. what voice coils are the subs? i wouldn't use bass boost anymore either...

With a 2 channel amplifier you either need to run the channels separated (useful for unbalanced loads) or in bridged mode which means you use a single positive from one channel and a single negative from the other, which are usually marked for you.

What voice coils are on your subs, single 2, single 4, dual 2, or dual 4? The Autotek M1600.2 is rated to 4 ohms bridged or 2 ohms per channel. For future reference when dealign with a 2 channel amplifier if you bridge it the final impedence is 1/2 the actual measured ohm load. For example if you attach a 4 ohm load in bridged mode the amplifier will "see" it as a 2 ohm load. Likewise a 2 ohm bridged connection is 1 ohm.

Any time you have have a power wire next to your frame put some rubber hosing (or cut up an innertube) around it. The wire is bound to wiggle (due to driving or flex) and the casing will eventually wear through.
