new system installed

[spoonman]

I got a new system and installed it myself. It's two audiobahn 10s in a nice ass leather box with a mirror and neon light. I have a legacy 800 watt amp. I know, its not the best system, but its good for the money so don't lecture me on that. I'm installing it in a 99 protege lx. I already wire it and everything, but now I am looking for a good place to put the amp and keep it in place. Anyone have recommendations? I was thinking back of the seat, but my ground wire will not reach (its on the trunk latch). Is there another ground in the trunk? Where?

Thats a terrible ground!
A ground should be to primary body metal with the paint scraped off and then screwed or bolted to the floor.

Check under the car before screwing.

I looked at the car and figured it out. I lifted up the carpeting from the back of my back seat and I'm gonna drill into the metal of the back seat. I saw that there was a ground down there too.
