What my mate did was:

Take carpet out draw round that on a piece of wood you want in ya boot, then around 2/3s of the way to 1 side slice it in 2 so one side has the wheel well. He then bolted his amp to the smaller side of the wood and the sub to the larger side of the wood. This way if he needed to access the wheel well he could un-wire the sub (only +ve & -ve connectors) and access his spare wheel.

Personall I've got like a 'trap door' with hinges so all ave gotta do is drop the back seats and open up the door to the wheel well. Works well.

Hope this helps, (if its the info your after).

Regards

the boot install i had, we just made a wooden floor, to the shape of the bodywork, and laid carpet over top of it! screwed the amp dwn, not sub tho (and it got nicked) for easy access reasons. ob in this case to the thieves.... DOH

my install is the kinda the same as Robhardy's// except i bolted me sub(inside) to the wooden floor and then bolted the wooden floor to the base of the boot! theif proof! i hope :?

i dunt even bother carrying the spare wheel. just throw it on the back seats if i go on a long journey.
