How would go about making an amprack that would go in place of your back seat. In my car, chevette/pontiac acadian (whatevere you want to call it..) the back seat folds down. I never used the back seat of my car and I would like to maybe this summer put an amprack where the back seat is.
Rob, I know you have done this with your CRX. Could you give me some advice, tips or pointers, as well as anyone else?

crx's don't have back seats if I remember right [img]smile.gif[/img]
you could pull the back seat and start by making a panel that bolts to the factory seat bolts .......
or if you want a flat floor to start with just fold down the seat and make your rack on top

You can check out tim Ballies accord.. http://www./Accord_folder...ord_stereo.htm
Thats assuming you want it to match the factory upolstry. If you dont, then finishing it is easier.
I built something similar (but for processors) in my car..

Basically its a square box similar to other racks.. with a "L" shaped cover sitting on top.

Zach as u know my backseat DOESNT fold down lol n i haven't MADE it fold down unwillingly yet lol BUT I took a piece of wood n bolted it to the back framez of the seat workz good for cooling too as the 'future shop' 'expert' said becuz of the style of amp the heat flowz through the syncz up n down so what a great idea to mount it that way too! lol [img]graemlins/thumb.gif[/img] If u have any troublez bring it with u in the summer n we'll take a look.

Final Product, n yes i was lazy enough to 'lay' in the trunk n paint that in 30° weather lol
U can also just bolt it on the backof the seat or a smarter choice is to mount it ontop of wood on top of that seat to be on the safe side.
