I have always loved the fact the Phoenix Gold shipped their special edition amps in wooden crates, but what happens to the crate when you mount the amp. Why not incorporate a crate into the install, and that's what I intend to do. I never got the original crate that my Outlaw came in and the Bandits just come in a box (that's not interesting), so my plan is to build a new crate that house all 3 amps together for one 52" long amp.
Here is what it looks like now with the Outlaw and 1 Bandit along with the 15 farad distro cap (this is either getting moved or replaced I haven't yet decided)
Here is what all 3 amps look like lined up.
I made a "technical" drawing to represent my plan.
The goal is to make it look like an old crate, something that is old and worn like this.
The center crosshatched part will be some sort of wire or steel mesh so you can see the amps inside as well as provide ventilation. I may even leave the metal grating outside so it can oxidize a bit for authenticity. I am also going to light it from the inside using this kit from Parts Express, http://www.parts-express.com/pe/showdet ... er=073-086
The "crate" will be bolted to the back wall of the cab behind the rear seat, it will appear as if an old crate has just been showed back there till the lights turn on.
Looking for input, what do you guys think.
