Default Behind the seat amp-rack

The 97-03 models literally have around an 2inches behind the seat, so all this work was SUPER tedious and tricky. Required welding, cuting, routing, sanding....... Enjoy

Alpine CDA 7894 with C701 processor and KCA 420i
Front-Focal 6.5" K2 Power's
Rear- 6x8 Type R coaxs
Subs- 2 10" Type R's
Amps- Rockford T1500, Focal FFP 4100

Still in the process..
Here's what I got in today, and got done.

Thanks, hopefully I will get all the filters and crossovers set today and get to do some sound testing. I'll update later with pics of the finished install

I would love to have my amp mounted back there. It is too large to fit under either of the front bucket seats, and I have my sub box covering all the space under the backseat. Does anybody know if there is a way to raise the center console and put it under there?

Is your truck a Scab, or a reg. cab?

I'm curious as to how your subs mount, do they sit vertical or horizontal? I have to Phoenix Gold 12"s in a custom box sitting slanted vertically, I would love to mount my amp like yours, but I think my box is a little too tall for it to work, I'm curious to see how yours looks all put together, may have to steal some inspiration from it.
