Just thought I would share with everybody my steps I used to make a mounting rack for my amplifier. Please note, I started by creating a template out of cardboard.











It now needs carpeting, but here is where my problem lies: I want to do it in the same carpet as the boot carpet itself. If anybody has a dark Corsa B boot carpet available, please u2u me! I do not want an earlier grey version, I want a later dark version, found in later Sport's and SXi's I believe.

Oh, and what do people think to this?

take out the actual ash tray bit and you can run the cables up by the back of the headunit, nothing will be on show

Yea, thats my plan. I have now drilled a hole in the side of the ashtray insert, so the cable can sit below the level of the ashtray, and fed the cable in behind!
I will get new pictures of it later.

yep, I have had it almost a year now and love it, sounds punchy, only ever have it on half power and its plenty loud enough when I want it be, it helps that I can adjust it all from the headunit now as well though!
