Default rockford fosgate amp question

I'm helping a friend build his system. Were wondering if two fosgate amps can be stacked inside of the batwing.

I don't know the dimensions of the amp you are talking about but I highly doubt you can do it. I have the Arc Mini and its a tight fit.

My Arc Mini is 8.25"(L)x 4.8"(W)x 1.7" (H) vs. 6.75"(L) x 4.25"(W)x 1.5"(H) so i would say no. I barely got my faring back on with the Amp that I have.

Good Luck!

Mike

Yes, you can install two RF PBR300x4 amps side-by-side on top of the HK head unit. The bracket to locate XM, CB, and other modules on top of the radio is removed; and, material has to be removed from the speedo and tach mounting cups and the gauges themselves in order to provide enough room for the amps--your Dremel w/ drum sanders will be your friend.
