Amp Rack designs
I think you need to lay it all out in the car first. From what I can tell you want access to the storage space in the hatch. And from what you've told me, you will be putting the sub on one side. Do you have enough room to put all the amps on the other side, which would give you lots (sort of) room in the hatch. You could place the amps vertically and stagger them. You really don't need to see any of the other gear. But if you really want to see it, there will be lots of space for them in other locations. Are you looking for a showy install or more stealth?
Like we discussed on Sunday! The amp rack is going to lift on a piano hinge so having the 3sixty's and distro underneath will not matter. I'll know more tomorrow and post photos with the sub in the corner.
The hurdle will be the opening for the spare tire which takes up 90% of the well. Rockford suggests not to seal up the processors so having them underneather isn't really an option. I can cool them with a fan but re-circulating hot air is kind off pointless.
Totally open to ideas except cutting a hole in the floor for fresh air!
I'll take photos tomorrow with options!
Like John said accessible is nice but not needed! All xover adjustments will be done in the 3sixty. The amps xover will be set up too as a backup incase the 3sixty's fail!
Here is the layout - The green tape is the tire well ( yes it's not centered ) due to the muffler. It may get tweaked in the end but this is the layout I'm going for. The sub was placed as a guide - not the exact layout but just to get an idea.
DUKK the distros are now moved to the back like you suggested. This will help if there is any strees on the wire when accessing the spare tire.
