Do we really need to go through with this again. We'll be in this thread until August...

You build one with wood, you screw the amps down and wire them up.

You're on a thing called the internet, go to a search engine, type in amp rack. You find some pictures.

Ok so no help from you two, that figures. Does anyone that actually has a new body style mustang that has built an amp rack, have any specs on theirs or pictures? Should I use a piece of plexi glass to mount both my amps too back to back or get some plywood or mdf wood 3/4 inch or what?

Thank you Raymoyer1 for the help. I want an open amp rack, I guess I might just get a board mdf of some size not sure either 3/4 or 1/2 inch thick. and hook up one amp to one side and other amp to the other side. I don't do Led,s those are gay.

Yeah I guess they are, compared to the other things youre doing...

And yes I would do 3/4, your amps do weigh around 90 pounds each...

If you want to manage space, you can mount the amps on the back of the seats in the trunk, but if your stuck on the 'rack' idea...

1/2-5/8's mdf works fine, as for overall design your looking for is upto you. But the higher off of the trunk bottom you put itthe more bracing you will need so its not breaking over every speed bump you drive over.
