Sound system placement
I have a 98 regular cab with a home-brewed system peiced together from I've scraped up over time. It sounds good, but a wire has come loose somewhere, so I'm going to rewire the whole thing. I have a crossover and two amps under the center seat, and I want to spread that out some so that I can actually work on it (If I can easily make repairs, it won't decide to stop working). The problem is, there's just no room. Does anybody have any ideas or experience? Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.
Oh yeah, one amp is a decent sized 12"x8" size, the other is a little 200 watt.

What kind of system are you running?
I have a 97 reg cab with 2 10" woofers and two amps in it. I dont have an issue with space though....
When I did do the install the storage racks behind the seats did come out.

Not much room for a big system without doing some customizing. If i every get antsy; my plans were to custom a box where my 12's sit at an angle facing up towards the seats, then mount an amp for my components and subs on the back wall. depending how your system is set up you could mount that big **** amp under the center seat with your adjustments toward the front so you can reach it with just leaning over to the floor. Just make sure you can have adequate air flow to cool them if there are any major watts coming out of it.
A single 10, behind the passenger seat. I really want to keep the racks, otherwise all my useless junk would be in the floorboard. Then the two amps, one is a 120 watt and I really have no clue what the other is, other than it is an old Kenwood KAC-714, and a crossover and noise filter.
Update:
I decided to replace the 11 year old half rotten carpet while I had everything stripped out. Less than $40 at Lowes got me a roll of outdoor carpet and some padding. Got it cut to fit, just need some fine trimming. I'm going to hook everything up tomorrow and make sure it plays, then put the truck back together. I'll try to post some pics of where I stashed everything and how I ran the wires, etc.
