** Ideas Needed **
I am about to be in the process of finishing up my trunk install. I am running short on room in the trunk, and still have quite a few components I need to put in. I was hoping some of you could give me some fresh ideas about how to finish it up. On the left side of the trunk I am wanting to put a lightning audio battery, and a Alumapro 5 farad cap. Here is a pic of the room left on the left side of the trunk.

On the right side of the trunk I am going to put a Kicker kx120.2 amp for the highs. It is the largest amp that will fit facing the opposite wall of the trunk. I am also wanting to put the crossovers for the components over there, along with a Pioneer 6 Disc DVD/CD changer. Here is a pic of the right side of the trunk.

Any ideas about how to situate all of this would be greatly appreciated. I want to use either vinal-wrapped fiberflass or wood to finish this up. I am probably going to want to use some more plexi too. I have been thinking about how to do this for a while and keep on I reverting back to the same ideas. Please give me something fresh.

sounds to me like you have three components, and two locations. so what you need, is to either get rid of a component, or find a third spot.
what about your rear deck? ppl usually mount changers on them, but at shows, often you will see amps installed there. perhaps you could install your amp on the rear deck, at a slight angle, so its kinda suspended there?
do you have enough depth there?
otherwise, your battery, amp, or cap will have to go in the cabin, under the floor, on the back seat, under the hood, or youll have to drop something.

ok i guess this is where i put my input in ;o)
whats in the spare tire well? well that seems to be the place for the other amp - just make sure there are fans - you dont always need to show your amps! next i would do wood and fiberglass to get those pannels custom fit - you can show off the cap on one side and crossovers on the other side - now for the dvd changer you can work that out aswell in the trunk just make a piece like this .... to be continued after i open paint or photoshop up ;o\
edit: ok well i did my little image thing - not the greatest since i made it in about two minutes so keep that in mind but i want you to know i was also planning on doing something along these lines - so you will not be the only one with it done and if your doing it yourself you should have knowledge in fiberglassing since you will hit up some wierd angles and shapes that need to be glassed. here it is
