Well, look at the bright side.
It didn’t blow up during the judging.

With all the work done on the car, what would be so hard about repairing it or swapping out for something else.

BTW...Congrats on the win.
Do you get $$$$$ for that too or just the big shiny things?

no cash, just trophies....
the thing is that the car is built around that amp, and finding another amp, or amps with 7 channels and 1500 watts is one thing...but making them fit into the space teh DaVinci was taking up is another...without that, I have to remove everything and completely re do my trunk...

all may not be lost, I've found several online retailers with the amp listed, altho none thus far have it in stock...

Should not be allowed to win a trophy for best A/V install if the installers did not keep in mind heated conditions-good work for the most part, but can it work after all that customization is key. Such a shame-the Da vinci is hot.

I don't think they were anticipating me driving, with the amp on, for 6+ hours with a trunk full of baggage either...
