Default Amp is mounted updates to come

I perfected my amp mount and now have it mounted and ready to wire. I also sleeved my antenna wire with some tinned emi wire sheathing to attempt to reduce emi on FM. Will be wired Monday with some pics and a sound vid if I don't smoke the 6.5's I have. At 2 ohm I have lots of headroom with the mq150.2 . This will be a clean sounding setup if like my last car install was 5 years ago. I have always loved the sound of CDT speakers. I always rans quarts with the titanium tweet but they went south when maxxsonics bought them out. The last set of CDT I replaced the quarts with were amazing being fed off a eclipse 32440.

Did you make your own amp tray? That looks very close to what I have!

I bought a mount off a guy on amazon intended for a Rockford amp that included a plate for bigger amps. I used the side brackets and then cut the plate he made to fit my amp. It had holes pre drilled I didn't need. I sheared some 1/8" aluminum at work, deburred it, drilled and countersunk, then tumbled in deburring/polishing stones in a shaker for a hour. Smooth as a baby's ***. I have a air pressure gauge for my legend air ride in the dash and now it fits perfect without touching the air line. Perks of being in maintenance.
