[QUOTE="Boley Buster, post: 7407425, member: 634723"] Alright, I did a little brainstorming and a little searching and had another question. How bad of a person would I be to use some industrial strength velcro to secure the amps? As I said, I'm an engineer. I know Amp = Hot, and Hot =/= Glue being sticky (unless its hot glue!). However, I was thinking about mounting the amp to a board, and then covering the backside with velcro. I know that this isn't near as secure as the bolting method, I've just been spooked by some of the "Ahh I bolted into my gas line" stories. From my figuring, the weight of the amp plus the stickiness of the velcro could be enough since the entire thing is going in such a small enclosed space. This way it also has a boost over the ground in protection of possible spills/water issues. I may be crazy, in fact I've been told it many times. It would not offend me to hear it again in this setting. [/QUOTE]
