STEREO, LIMITED SPACE IN TRUNK.


I am looking to install a clean alpine system in my 2007 accord V6 5AT with NAV I want to have it look like a stock car. I was first looking into a single free air sub in the rear deck lid like the LEXUS IS250 but it seems like with the rear seat release handle and the factory nav the rear deck seems to be off limits to this idea. So I have to figure something else out!!! After reviewing amps on the market I found the Alpine PDX amps to be somewhat smaller them most with that said I took a look in the trunk and found there is no real flat area to mount both amps and capacitor, So my question goes out to anyone who may have build a false floor for there 2007 accord or one that is close to the same trunk configuration. Do you have any pictures or ideas, I have an alpine build box with 2 12's or I could go with a single alpine 10 r sub and build a box for it. I’m older now and not looking for a lot of bass that rattles that car but something that makes it nice with listening to hip hop or rock... remember my goal is to have a install look like you pop the trunk and really not see a big old box back there with a lot of amps and wires. Thanks for your understanding for a long message.. :)

Have a look at these two threads for space saving ideas.

The first deals specifically with amp locations. If you look at page three you'll find my current location, which only takes up about 20 sq. in. of cargo space.

the second thread is one specifically for where I placed my sub woofer. It takes up some trunk but leaves 85% of it completely open.
