My install takes up the whole center console, behind the dash board, the back of the passenger seat (PC mounted there), and under the passenger seat.

We've since cleaned it up a good bit too! Since I'm not using that sound card any more I got rid of all of the RCAs and since I'm no longer using a case (ran too hot), we got rid of some of that stuff too.

Glad it inspired someone!

Now I have a big Stinger scroll fan blowing over the computer for those hot Texas summers we get around here. Of course, it's on a switch so it's turned off for critical listening.

Unfortunately, hardly anything like that that we use can be found at an auto parts store around here.

We ordered them online. I'll see if I can find the place.

I found them at Advanceautoparts, but they do not look as good as Red's.... They have no cover and they are split up into 2 rows.
