Peter,
This is a long thread and its easy to miss bits, but I think Michael is installing the amps against the back of the trunk, not the bottom of the rear deck ;-)

Hehe, I think people should take notice of Michael's 'Less speed, more haste' approach to installing... everything is planned out and checked first...more than most of us can say ;-)
