I have a 72 skylark. I currently have 2 speakers undermounted in the package tray and will likely be adding kick panels in the future up front. I have an aftermarket head unit and running a small amp to the rear speakers, which is under the passenger side of the bench seat. This was a quick install to see how things would sound. I do plan on putting a subwoofer in as well, not to be heard from a mile away, but just to give a little punch to the sound. I am looking for a couple things. 1. can anyone show me pictures of where they may have mounted/installed their amps? 2. Does anyone have pictures of their sub install? I am thinking the trunk is the only place I can do it, but would like to see some clean installs. I have amps and some 10" woofers sitting in the garage, so that is what I will be using. Thanks in advance.
I put mine in the trunk just below the package tray, spare tire and jack accessible plus trunk space. If you’re going to box in your trunk a panel would easily cover the amp. I didn’t install subs just an amp for better sounding music which is loud enough
This shows were I put my amp under the dash above the glove box: https://www.v8buick.com/index.php?threads/another-radio-post-with-a-twist.347930/ I use it to drive the 6X9's under the package tray. If you get good speakers you should have plenty of bass with no need for a sub. You can lose the bass by under powering the speakers.
I built enclosures to put the subs on the sides and the amps under the package tray. However, if I ever get a flat tire it's going to mean a call to roadside assistance...
I have also mounted an amp on the underside of the package tray area from inside the trunk. It’s hidden from view, even with the trunk open
