putting an amp in the hatch door

[liljestrand 244]

Is this feasible? Since I will be running sealed to get my backseats back I'm running out of room.

need to place a crescendo bc5500 and 1100.4 in my Xb somewhere.

Was thinking of building a compartment in the hatch door itself to put the 1100.4. I know running 4 sets of speaker wires along with the 4g power wires will take some time but is this a possibility?

Or am I asking for a headache.

Very feasible, but think about how many times you open and close that door. Every time you close it, you introduce a huge shock to the amp it was never designed for. Over time, components will loosed, screws will back out, hell you could even crack the board. If you do it, try to lessen the vibration and shock to it as much as you can.

Well its pretty much gonna be a set it and forget it kind of thing. Was possibly thinking of putting the amps under the sub box in a false floor kind of deal.

i think it would be smarter to mount the amps on the box...or underneath the box if you can...

mount it on the roof
