Nice Work, but ?
What did you use to mount the amp fuse to the battery, double sided tape? Do you feel it will hold up to the under hood temps and flex of the 4 gauge wire?

Yep, that's 3M adhesive tape, the kind used to hold on trim/louvers/spoilers and the like. There's not really any pressure on it from the cable and I feel confident it's not going anywhere.

Hey Tim

Looks good how much would you charge to make a AMP Rack like that?

Never thought about selling one, let me mull it over and get back to you.

Looks incredible Tim, outstanding job!! Where did you end up getting the carpet covering? Looks like a nice match to the existing trunk covering.
