Install Update
Well, my CD changer arrived today, (CHA-S624), and I got it hooked up. I decided to put it under the passenger seat from the back. I am still able to reach it from the driver's seat, although probably not with the car moving. I picked up the changer used for $115 shipped. I just could not pass it up. I would like to have had a S634 but, I do not listen to MP3's anyway. I love the disc naming capability and it looks awesome on the Alpine CDA-7893.
I am still working on the trunk. I have, for today anyway, decided to go with the one Kicker 10L7 powered by 500 watts from a JL 500/1. I am still tinkering with placing it either sub up firing thru the stock hole or sub facing toward the rear of the trunk. I would like to go facing the rear but, I do not think there is enough room for the sub and then the 2 JL amps, one on each side of the sub. I am only allowing the space where the spare tire cover hinges. I think somewhere around 15" from the back seat area. In order to fit the sub and 2 amps, it would take about 40". That would be close. It is either that or face the sub up and mount the amps behind the sub. That way, you would not even see the sub. Just the amps. I could face the sub rear and mount the amps on top but then, you would see the sub and the wiring connections for the amp.
Any thoughts???

why not try installing the amps at an angle? would that make them fit? if not, does ur box fit all the way to the back of the back seat? if u have a gap like i do, you could mount ur amps there and have them nicely arranged, so that they are seen through the ski hole only.... and
it will be a few days before i put up my latest amp rack pix that is located in that same area. i think u'll like

Systek....Thanks for the angle idea. I am going to try that. I think that would work nicely for what I want to do. Hopefully this weekend, I will be done with the trunk. The wife will be out of town so, I will have some time.
