    Question How to mount amps to each side of the boot

    I am in the process of mounting my amps to each side of the boot. I'll try to explain this as best as I can without images. I am trying to figure out an easy way to mount them upright to the left side and right side of the boot and cover them using a thin piece of MDF followed by some carpet to cover the MDF. I have 2 amps, one being my mono-block and the other being my 4 channel. I am thinking of cutting a square bit in the middle of the MDF (enough to only show the amps and if need be allowing to make adjustments without having to have to take the cover off). Problem is I don't have any templates to cut to making it very difficult to predict sizes of material required. Wondering if anyone has done this before, what materials they used and whether they have a template pre-made to make this job easier, or if perhaps you may have any suggestions?

    Thanks

    Cardboard is your friend. Make up whatever templates you need using cardboard and trace them onto the MDF

    Hey that's wicked! But yes exactly like that. I don't think I could do a job as good as that though. That must've taken ages to do! Care to share the experience?
