I was trying to find a good place to mount my amps and my distribution blocks. I was wondering if anyone knows if it's safe to drill holes/screw screws into the pillars in the trunk that come in the furthest. I also wanted to mount the distro blocks under my back seat. So if anyone knows whether its safe or dangerous to drill holes in those spots please post. Thanks.

I have the fold down seats so I don't have that piece =\. I thought about mounting them on the backs of the seats themselves, but if I mounted my amps there I'd have to find a way to secure my subwoofer box so it wouldn't slide into the amps. Car audio is a headache...I shoulda spent all this money on tattoos and an HDTV =].

ottowrkr : the pillars found about the middle of the trunk. they come in the furthest into the trunk. i'm mounting two amps, two crossovers, and two distrobution blocks. I'm thinking more and more about mounting them to the back of the seats and finding a way to keep the subwoofer box from moving. You're not supposed to mount amps upside down or horizontal because it prevents the heatsinks from releasing the heat properly.

Thrasher : post some pics of your artwork. or post some links. I'm completely covered from my waist to my neck and down to my wrists (sans my right armpit) and have just started working on my legs. I'll throw up some pics and post a link shortly.

Well against someones advice, I mounted everything on the back of the seats. My subwoofer bow was too large to mount the amp on top of...and the amp was too large to mount it on the side. I got fed up with running wires so it doesn't look pretty but it sounds great. Unfortunately, my dad was borrowing the digital camera at the time so I don't have any install pics. But in the next day or two I should have some finished photos for you guys.
