Well i spent the day in the car today and the bass is sweet - i have missed having some tunes! got lots more tweaking to do but with the motorway being the only place to listen to it loud with the windows loud (it is louder with them down and im not one for showing off.....not in this anyway - Project Big Black will be the show off car)

Managed to find one behind the boot trim - where the luggage strap fasteners bolt to - its hidden right away so couldn't get a pic

Last night I spent ages working out how to mount all the bits on a removable board - this is what I came up with

Which of course didnt fit! so i pulled off the small amp and the epic and centred the sub amp - the ground zero fuse holder you can see on the bottom right actually comes with the amp - a nice feature.

Moving the epic and granite amp to the back of the box

Sub mounted - the Nuclear subs come with a nifty metal trim ring and massive Allen headed black screws - another nice little feature

And everything all in and good to go

Needs a little bit of setting up but I have a lot of driving to do this week so will let you know my thought on the set up soon

Looks good, are you still using the std components?

This thread is extremely useful. I have now pushed an amp power cable through the suggested teat and I am a happy man. Removing the rest of the trim to run the cable is more than awkward.
