Hidden Amp Cover Pics ! Check it out So i wanted a cover that hides my amps-- i didnt like being able to see them and the wires, plus i couldnt use the hatch area at all to set stuff... 6le use to make one but they quit- so i made on myself. Turned out awesome imo. Its study if i need to set a couple cases of beer or what-not lol Let me know what you guys think of my embroidery- I wanted something a little different than the regular TA bird.

the bird is BADASS, but personally i'm not a fan of restricting airflow around amps, In my last car when I swapped the carpet (which I used as the perfect time to run my stereo wires) I threw the old carpet over the back seat (which is where my amp was) and drove the 5 MINUTES to get home from my friends house (used his garage) and left the old carpet in the back seat and my amp was burned up (blew a fusable link) when I pulled the carpet off of it the next day (more then 12 hours later) and at home my car is shaded by the trees plus it wasn't hot that day to begin with, ever since then I'm am super cautious to not let anything block airflow.

Now put those skills to work and recarpet that poor box, so they will match and then if you must run speaker grilles please find something less ugly, sorry man but those grilles are bad.

I've seen where people install a case fan (like for a desktop computer), not sure what the voltage rating on those are off hand so not sure how to wire it but if I where you I would add one or 2 just to be safe.

Yea im gonna do the box in the same carpet- Gonna look real nice when its all the same color black. And yea- the grills gotta go- they are ugly. Im still looking around for ideas on the covers. I think i am gonna look into putting some sort of small fan under there too, would probably help a lot.
