Best way with your boot install is come up with your own idea's try different things and add what you like from from what you have seen from other install's.
Like every mod, it has to represent you.

i reckon the best install for 2 subs and 2 amps is.....
put the 2 subs at the back...normal or reversed (magnents out) with the 2 amps under a fake floor with clear perspecs cut out so you can se the amps with neons lighting them up or something? cheers troy

I thought you said you didn't want the same as everyone else.. here is one similar to the one i think you trying to do to give you an idea of wat it will look like..
Here's a few pics for inspiration.. Please note i didn't do these installations.. I also have some more of one i did not long ago but i can't find them now for some reason.. Cheers, Nik

ok i started my boot install, i bought the mdf, i have emptied the boot completey and measured up the first floor, whats happen is there will be a bottom floor with the 2 amps on the left side then there will be a top floor covering the amps and spare wheel with perspex over the amps so you can see them, then there will be a fake wall up the back with the dual subby box push against it and bolted on so it stays then it will all be carpeted in super plush lime green carpet with green neons
