    Damn, that's a ****load of money. How much did the 3000D and 100.4 run you?

    What options are you doing on the BL's?

    A simple idea I had for 45s for the corners was to take some 1/8th or 1/4 inch plywood and cut it to size...then just sand down the edges so it sits flush with the walls...glue and clamp it down...then fill the cavity up with some expanding foam like great stuff.

    I think thats what I'ma do cuz my circular saw sucks at cutting angles

    I've decided to brace it all with 1.5"x3.5" pieces of wood. I cut half my pieces today. Here's the bottom piece of the box to give you an idea how it fits in the trunk.

    It's going to be tough getting this done with school and work Friday and Saturday this weekend. I'll probably just attach the new amps to my old amp rack until I build a new one (I won't run the wires through the grommets.). I don't know what I'm going to do for an amp rack this time. The whole grommet thing with running the wires through looked cool but it was a huge pain in the ass... and no one could see the amp rack anyway. Not only that, but I couldn't really get to my crossovers and distribution blocks, so I'm going to have to come up with something else.
