Default Under the batwing amp mounts

Besides the recommendation I got from Carl, whatcha y'all using to mount amps under the hood of your batwing? Specifically I am looking for anyone with a Fosgate PBR300, but open to other suggestions...

Yes I used the search function on both HDForums and Google, but nothing really caught my eye.

Also curious if anyone has custom exhaust under the fairings to get rid of the warm air. Computer fans would work yes, but that would just circulate the hot air in the hood. This is pretty much open to any fairing.

Thanks for your help
Rick

I made one... Test fitted fine with the fairing, ipod and the pbr300x4. I might be going with a bigger amp in the bags later down the line, so ended up shelving this project. Just running the stock radio with the ipod back in the original place above the radio. I think I used 16ga. steel from lowes, dremel, etc. The ipod was real close to the top outer triple tree, so I put a piece of felt there just in case it decided to shift. Worked fine. Carl and Scott were excellent resources.
