Amps behind Wheel Well

Amps behind Wheel Well
Hey guys, I am starting to get my gear in for my build (car is 08 civic lx coupe, for equipment see sig). I have a pair of Sundown amps, and want to do a half decent install. I like the installs with the amps mounted nicely behind the wheel wells, facing each other. Nothing too complex, I don't want to do any fiberglass work. Any tips, pointers, or tutorials I should look at? I'm also thinking of making a trim panel after the sub is put in to make everything nice and clean. Help is most appreciated.

I'll try and get picks up tomorrow of my trunk and what I want to do (if you can't visualize it). My main question is how do I secure the "forms" to my trunk? I really don't want to drill unless I have to, I'm always terrified I'm going to drill into something I shouldn't.

I haven't had a chance to take pictures, but check out this link. It is pretty much want I want to end up doing.
Where did you mount your Amps - Mustang Forums at StangNet
Here is another link with pictures of my trunk (not my car, but its an 8th gen civic). This might be even easier to do.

from the pic of that stang its pretty much building a new floor. and build from floor up and flushing every peace of mdf to the metal. and use L brackets where you can without screwing through the car lol... seems pretty simple to me

Ya, I don't think it would be too bad to build, I just hate putting holes in my car from drilling or screwing. I'm seriously thinking about doing a false floor and putting my amps in a rack in the spare tire well. Would look slick, be easy to do, and give me room for golf clubs. Is there any way to secure a false floor other than screwing? Is it possible to get away with a form fit floor without any means of securing it down?

make the floor all around the weel well ( form fitted )and glue it down or use silicone cocking... and the access to the weel well would be on a hinge to kinda open your amp rack and be able to tune and check wires and like that..
