Trunk Q for everyone!

I recently removed my spare tire and what not to place my AMP's and 3sixty.2 unit in its place... However after a few long drives it has become clear that my main AMP cannot take the heat and will cut its self off after 2hours drive time...

Needless to say I am going to work on some sort of cooling system to get air moving down there...

I am aware that most cars usually have some air equalization vents. You know the little vent in the trunk with the rubber flaps that lets air out, but not in.

Anyways my question before I go tearing out the rest of my carpet looking for them is, besides this DIY I found here:

explaining how to remove the carpet, is anyone aware of any photos of our trunk floating around just so I can confirm we even have these vents????

I don't have any photos but the vents you speak of are below the tail lights near the "floor" of the trunk. When I removed the panels in the trunk (gutting my trunk per the TL-diet), I discovered them.

Sweet! That makes it super easy to design / install a cooling system! Thanks boss I will look there tonight

In my garage, I have triple A and mostly drive local as it is. Check out my progress thread to see what I’ve done
