I'm wondering the same thing. I had it on the back of my rear seats but i took out the rear seats and all the carpeting/sound deadening **** in the trunk. I'm in need of ideas where to put it.

try the amps at http://www.41hz.com/. they're really small. you probably already have the amps though.

Put them in the storage bins, its not real difficult to do, so that way your stuff is hidden and if done right, it has a nice clean look to it

the Infinity amps are quite big, so putting it IN the bins seems out of the question....
I see DJ has a infinity (mono amp?) and 2 12" (or they look like 12s) but the box looks HUGE
I have a rear strut bar at the towers,

do any of you guys recommend running sub boxes somewhere, or making a false floor or whatever? (any pictures?)

I did away with the bins altogether and I built this for the amp out of 1/2" MDF. I am not done yet, but you get the idea.





I even riced it out a bit ;b

I put my amps in front of the storage bins. There are two bolts under the carpet. I unscrewed them, and fixed an aluminium plate with two longer bolts. Then I fixed the amps on the aluminium plate.
I have some overheaeting concerns with putting the amps under the seats or in the bins.

As for the sub

i have a rear strut bar and my infinity 7541a is pretty big... I don't really like to put it behind the seats, so i wonder if i can put it below my rear strut bar

the other question for you guys out there...
did u guys get upgraded alternators for your systems? because it seems like it would draw quite some power and i don't want it to fry my alternator

i'm about to take out my rear bins to put in my visonik V800HC, make a shelf all the way across to set it on, then build a fiberglass box to sit over it, with my infinity perfect 12"s and 51/2 component setup. it'd look something like a false backseat made outta fiberglass and subs
