OK next heres the bottom layer of 1/2 mdf that is the bottom floor

Now the mounting of the amplifiers, the box was sticking up out of the hole 3 inches, so while at homedepot getting the 3/4 mdf i was checking out different boards to find one that was 3 inches and i found these

they are used for building decks but were perfect for what i wanted to do

showing the cut out made for the main power wire tht travels the length of the car to the trunk where the battery is located

ok these is where I am at currently

you used a wall outlet style speaker connector? I just put one of those in for my 2 surround speakers. They look really clean.
