Default need some help with trunk layout

I just got a new amp and I really want to mount both of my amps in my trunk so they look good....
I was trying to look up pictures of amp racks that people have made...
So I need some ideas on where to mount the amps so it looks clean
as far as space I only have one 12" JL sub in a wedge shaped box so I have a good amount of room

Try mounting them on the back of your seats and making a cutout to go over top of them and hide the wires.

I'm not sure of the intricacies involved. I've seen picture of it. Aren't there bands of metal back there that hold the foam in place? If so, couldn't you slide some mdf under those metal pieces and then screw into the mdf so it clamps together?

thats a good idea...I was deciding between the back of the seats or making an actual amp rack that they would be layed out on...back of the seat is easier and less time consuming

Yeah I was going to do the back of the seat but the amp is too big. It would hafta span both seats... I just mounted it on my box.
