I want it in the area that the box is sitting in in the 3rd pic.
I have 46" across the front, 7" on the bottom front to back, and I cant remember what the back is. I THINK it is 26.5" but I have to go out in the garage and look what I wrote down.
The amps need a panel 11" wide to mount horizontally.
I can't do elaborate angles unless you can tell me what specific angle to set the saw at. I already tried it and couldn't get them to line up. Also I don't know how I'm going to secure it together. I don't have a nail gun and 1/2" is thinner than I thought so screws will split it.
I think fire + Z = win!
Also is the 14" at a 90" angle from the bottom of the hatch or is it at an angle back? It can be at 110* back towards the back of the car to follow the angle on the strut bar.
That's just roughed up after getting the other info I doubt it will fit anymore.
basically just make the baffle so it fits in there perfect
then make filler panels use cardboard to get them perfect
that way it will be a tight fit and won't move around
I dont know what to do to get it done. I hate wood, and I have never been that good. I used a piece of that tin 90* edging for sheds for a fence to straighten up my sheet to 82" long and it still has some waves in it, but now I can use it on the table saw and get straighter cuts.
I'm just at a mental block and can't think of anything to do.

Well I was going to use the outside panels for the amps, then the middle for the battery box. But I don't know how that will work out now that I thought about it.
I finally forced the old ass rusty table saw over to the 45* mark, it isn't perfect but a sander can fix that.
Ok, now that I had wenn's design for visual aid I think I got this down. I have decided to just scrap what I have cut up from my 1/2" ply and consider it a learning experience and cut my losses.
I'm going to make the amp face and the back panel out of the 1/2" and then make all the base stuff out of 3/4" MDF so I can glue/screw. The 1/2" ply will just fall apart, and will take way too long to just glue.
I cut out the amp face 12 x 46" and have it sanded down already, I just did some mathing and figured out to have a 7" base I need a 9.75" tall back panel to make a right triangle. And my angles will be 90, 54.3 and 35.7.
It doesn't say which angle goes in which corner though, so would someone care to tell me which one it is in? And do I need to set the blade to each respective angle or will it need to be different? I don't wanna waste any more wood. I figure I will just cut the angles on back and bottom piece and leave the amp plate straight to make it easier to put together instead of trying to do a miter joint or whatever like picture frames have. I'm fine with block corners on part of it. lol
Also having the 3/4" MDF base will put more weight at the bottom to help with the center of gravity.
Also what would look better, a good black paintjob on it or black carpet?
(I was mainly making this post so I don't forget that info because I'm about to pass out and I have a splitting headache.)
