Help me design a amp rack!

[Toofastgs]

Ok, so im done tinkering with my set up for now and i need to get it looking better.

Here is what i am thinking. I am up for changes let me know or deisgn me something else

So this will lay upside down hanging from rear deck Big amp 21" long will be the first amp you see when trunk is open. What you think.
1. Big amp is a custom made Lunar for IASCA Competition. It Includes Front channel and Sub amp
2. Smaller amp is for my rears it is again a Lunar L60

I made something similar to what you have described, upside down amp rack.

Your "big amp" and "small amp" may need to be put side by side.

Dimensions are approximately 36in wide, 18in center, 17in ends. x 3/4 mdf.

I am assuming you have a 97-03 GP. From the front (straight end closest to rear set), you cant run any wiring through the board, for about 6 inches. The sheet metal is flat and is in very close contact to the board. After 6 inches, you have up to around 10 x 20 x 2.5 (between board to sheet metal) inches of space to run wiring.
I changed out my rear 6x9 with matching front/rear 5.25. The 6x9s would touch the board, and I'd have to cut out or notch enough for the magnet if I kept the 6x9s.
I also didnt screw the back end (curved end by trunk lid) all the way flush with the sheet metal. The metal curves upward, this would cause my board to bend, and since I had my amps mounted on the board first, I didnt want to have any stress put on them.

I stuck with 4awg power/ground, and should of gone 8awg from the capacitor.

Also my fuses are between the deck and board, makes it tough to replace.
An 8awg combo (+-) power distrubution block would of been ideal.

Carpet would of been good to have from the start too.

Also using 3 pairs of RCA cables instead of a 4-channel and 2-channel. Minimum 5 meters or 15 feet.

Overall, I like the look. I can still access the amp settings from the rear pass-through. I'll change it up sometime in the future, using the same board and cover up the holes with carpet.
