I am adding a big stereo to my sled trailer with two 10" subs and thinking of checkerplating the sub box and enclosure which will hold the three amps. Any tips or ideas would be most welcome, with pics of what you have done even better! Thanks!
Checkerplating Sub Box?

Make sure you use silicone or a n adhesive that flexes. If you use one that drys hard/ridged it will come loose over time from the vibration and rattle like hell

also make sure you have enough ventilation to keep your amps cool.

Most newer amps are fan cooled. If they can run in the trunk of a car at +30 out then they can run in a sled trailer... Lol

Thanks for the tips! Currently planning on mounting amps at an angle on the top of a cabinet which will house the sub box and batteries below. Will make cabinet out of 3/4 inch plywood, insert pre-made sub box within it and then cover cabinet with checker plate.

Finally got stereo install and led lights all done! Two 12" Alpine subs, eight speakers and 3600 watts! LEDs programmable on ceiling and those on stereo cabinet go to beat of music too.
Thanks for the install tips. Project took way longer than planned but turned out great.
Party is on after a great day of sledding...
