I'm not 100% sure on what amp I'm I'm going to run, just that i need around 250watts RMS to each of my subs. I'm more or less just looking for suggestions on were to place this equipment, i DON'T care about space, it can take up the WHOLE trunk for all i care. How would you set it up in this trunk?

if you get 2 amps 1 for the main and one for thr subs i would do the sidesof the car each side

if i have a bigger amp just for the subs i would place the amp on the floor and have the behind it

the box i would play with to see if it hits at wall of the trunk or if i set it up to hut the glass at 90* to the glass

Make or buy yourself a vented dual 10 box and mount your amp(s) on the back of it.

If your worried about it being hard on amps, Cut some rubber hose in 1" lengths squish it and put it between the amp and box, then screw it in,

But its not like box vibrations are the only thing to your amps, anywhere you mount them road vibration will still get to it too
