[QUOTE="Joe89, post: 7695371, member: 583644"] Couple more pictures... [IMG]http://img29.imageshack.us/img29/708/middlesection.jpg[/IMG] Images Above: Lots of interior removed for deadening. Spent 45 minutes chipping away at stock deadening... based on how much I was able to remove I'm guessing the hammer/chisel method would take another 10 hours. It is really stuck on there. I am going to use dry ice, like this: [MEDIA=youtube]IXzAWUHCgyc[/MEDIA] I will let you know how it turns out. [IMG]http://img718.imageshack.us/img718/7920/fanstestfit.jpg[/IMG] Image Above: Amp compartment with a test fit of some 2x4 that will restore some rigidity to the panel and allow my fans to be mounted. I am going to bore out the holes a bit more and clean it up before its mounted in place. I am running 3x60mm 12v computer fans (pictured above) on the intake side. These will be pulling air from a quarter panel section equipped with an exterior air vent, so it should be nice and cool. Not pictured but on the other side of the compartment will be an additional 3x60mm fans, mounted with the same method, exhausting the air. I am wiring all of the fans to a relay that is triggered by the amps' trigger wire, so the fans will be on whenever the amplifiers are on. [IMG]http://img12.imageshack.us/img12/3341/fansmounted.jpg[/IMG] Image Above: I am going to add the screws at the bottom, but that is how they are attached to the 2x4. As I am running the Memphis 4kw on 16v, and the box will be atop this compartment, I felt that the fans were a must. I only hope that it will be enough airflow. I can always add more fans though!
