    you could do a layered amp rack, depending on the size theres enough room between the strut towers for 4 amps if you do it right.

    Stream the biggest thing I have against stacking is you can not display all you amplifiers. I am all about the show with my amp racks.

    Back at it (at least a little)

    I needed to swap out my new part from the dealership (the big hatch trim that covers the rear wiper motor)

    So I thought I would address the rattles that the trim could create and wow does the three small trim pieces make quite a bit of noise when you tapped on them....well they used to. Let's just say that 1/8" thick closed cell foam with stick back is a great thing







    All the black squares are the closed cell foam.

    Then line the edges of the plastic trim:





    Now the pieces pass the "finger thumping" test, no more rattles.

    Hopefully more to come, I need to take out the amp rack and driver side stuff to figure out what is catching and holding up the cable to my hatch release.

    Wrapped my passenger "A" pillar tonight:







    I am having a lifting problem in that concave curve where the "A" pillar trim meets the dash, I only used 3M's "Super 77" multipurpose spray adhesive to do this job, I have to try 3M's Hi-Strength 90 to keep the vinyl bonded to that area, there is a lot of force to fight in that area.

    Anyone with experience here, I would greatly love some advise.

    heat is for stretch, at least I thought. I need to get the 3M Hi-Strength spray adhesive, that will take care of my lifting issue. The minor wrinkles will not be noticeable, that is from the streatching.

    Get the 3M 90 Adhesive, spray on both surfaces until they are tacky but not sticky enough to peel off (you want it to kinda feel like the 3M double sided vinyl tape to the touch) Make sure you don't go too thin, you want the ENTIRE surface to have an even coat of spray. I would use a stronger glue to hold the vinyl to the back o f the plastic like a super glue or a hardening epoxy.
