Topic: Modifying Ford Ranger seats

This hole is not big enough to accept for the amps, but just small enough so that they can screw in horizontally, basically covering the hole. However, the material layer on the back of the seats is only 1/4" thick. Thats not big enough to "flush" the amps in any sense of the word. Any suggestions on modifying the seats to actually make "flushed" amps? I was thinking of damping the seats and mounting an amp rack onto the back of each one, but that would be very time consuming.. Any thing else? ShadowStar

I'm modifying the seats of my ford ranger (92) to accept PPI A404.2's. Each seat will have one amplifier in them. I took apart a seat and found that it has a single layer of metal as a frame, with one lumbar support (or lack thereof ) HOLE in the frame.
