Re: Dual Amp System Install
Replied to yours. please get back to me asap. i really appreciate all your help
Just wanted to let others know as well
Last night, I delivered food for 4 hours straight, after 45 minutes amp was very hot but put both rear seats down and with the breeze the 4 channel amp barely even got warm?
Any ideas from that?

They are mounted same way but now have fans on them. Now im having a problem with fans staying up when it gets over 80 degrees outside. Please see my other thread on fan mounting. thank you!

Re: Dual Amp System Install
You have ventilation issues
You might have fans now, but those fans are blowing the same hot air around in your trunk
What I did to cure my ventilation issue was to remove the rear 6x9's to provide airflow into the trunk
But I doubt you're wanting to remove your aftermarket 6x9's after paying for them.
Another option I was thinking of...
Theres an air vent on the drivers side of the trunk, if you pull back the lining
Maybe if you removed it, cut a hole in the lining, and fashioned some kind of air duct with a filter on it, you could bring fresh air in (Kind of like a cold air intake for your trunk)
The only problem with that is...if it's raining, then water will get into it, as it is directly behind your rear wheel well

Re: Dual Amp System Install
buy some metal angle brackets from lowes in the lumber section. you can screw the fan to it, and then mount them to the vehicle (obiously don't screw into the amps) with them blowing on the amps.
