[QUOTE="JarvisB, post: 6646517, member: 575320"] Guys, I cant even decide on this one so hope some of your input would help my decision. I got 2 fans and I am not sure which one would be ideal for cooling of my amps. keep my mind kicker zx series amps are non fancooled, but they work like an horse when hot tho. Just want to have the most efficient cooling possible to get the most out of my investment on the fans. The picture was taken this morning before I made the vent cutout on the board up behind the rear seat. From what it seems, I will have to only have the capability to blow the hot air out by using both of my fans but I am not sure where am I supposed to get some fresh air in. I thought about making cutout above the fans and put in a mesh but I realized that the board is 5/8 inch so it wont work. I am thinking about finding some computer fans locally and add them to the backboard on both sides to **** the fresh air in. concept #1 [IMG]http://i75.photobucket.com/albums/i281/uglydimple12/IMG00026-20100108-1945.jpg[/IMG] concept #2 [IMG]http://i75.photobucket.com/albums/i281/uglydimple12/IMG00027-20100108-2003.jpg[/IMG] So which way should I mount it in for the best efficiency? Just looking for some opinions. I think I will have everything installed and hooked up by tomorrow as I got the grommets to clean up the look as well Also I decided to go ahead and get the carpeting over with. It was my very first attempt at carpeting anything lol, I think I am pleased with how I did. But I could do a bit better with the back board because I could not get the carpeting on the edge of the cutout in the middle 100% right.
