mounting amp that has no feet

[thegreatestpenn 5,000+ posts]

So I just picked up an amp that has no mounting tabs/feet built in. My usual way to mount such amps is to unscrew side screws, line up L-brackets to the hole, and put the original screw back in with the L-bracket attached. Then I just use the L-bracket holes for mounting. This amp, however, has screws really low on the amp chassis. I'm still planning on using the same technique for mounting, but if anyone else has a better Idea, let me know. I was gonna go an amp rack, but I hit alot of bumps while driving and I don't want the amp "jumping" up and down. got a pic of it below

where abouts are you mounting it? if its not in your cab where it could kill people, good thick velcro straps should suffice

See those bottom screws?

Use those screws in an L bracket.

in the trunk, I considered something similar, like using those generic cap brackets to put around the amp and screw down on each side

ok, didnt know this would be so hard to understand. i was trying to find out, what amp is the one in this post.

FWIW, my viper, orion, kicker, rockford fosgate, ma audio, and alpine amps have all had mounting feet. i have never seen an amp without it...until this thread, and you know why? because you gotta be able to ****ing mount an amp without having to fabricate parts for it or use bungi cords and shit.

My buddies ma audio, memphis, power acoustik, both orions, and another buddies old sony even has mounting feet.
