Here are the hideaway Kicker amps, Kx 800.4 and a Zr 1000, built and installed in the car. The 800.4 is for day to day listening and the Zr 1000 is the competition amp.
There's one in the backrest...

I have two more boxes built, one for a Solo 10 and the other for two Solo 8s. Both can hit 140 dbs.
I installed the Solo 10 in April and changed out amps so expect more pics...

For a minor customized Volkswagen, you did a good job. I got a stock 73, check it out when you got a chance.

WHAT AMP ALTERNATOR ARE YOU RUNNING, AND WERE CAN I FIND ONE FOR A REASONABLE PRICE? I CAN BUILD AND PAINT A CAR WITH A BLIND FOLD ON, BUT KNOW VERY LITTLE ABOUT STEREO EQUIPMENT. MINE NOW IS A 75 AMP, BUT I WANT TO ADD A 10"SUB AND A FEW OTHER GOODIES.
