Shown here is the amp rack with components placed for a 'dry fit' before drilling of wireing holes and laying of carpet.
Shown here is the amp rack with the carpet and fan network in place. The fans are set up so that the passenger side blows air into the amp rack, and the drivers side fan pulls air out of the amp rack to facilitate maximum flow. The Generation X series of HiFonics amps utilize thermal tracking which will activate the ground terminal the fans are connected to as the amps require cooling.
