ACMs are great little amps. I love mine. I hope you're getting the enjoyment out of better sound throughout this whole process! It's a great feeling. The only thing i have to say about your install is 1. Mount your fuse to a much more stable platform. Fabricate a piece of ABS plastic that can be mounted on a factory bolt. 2 Doesn't the screw for your ACM units go straight through the floor? That panel where the wheel well is thin then its the road

His fuse is fine, but yes having a stable mount is more optimal. Also there's nothing wrong with drilling a hold through the floor. Your car is filled with tons of little holes already.

Fuse is a mini anl, which is pretty vibration resistant, much more so than the glad agu fuses. It is secured to OEM wiring with a couple of wire ties. I'm not worried about it at all. If I would have mounted the amps to a rack/plate like I did the EQ/DSP, I'm not sure I would have had the clearance for the floor. Stainless screws could possibly slow rust/corrosion, but I'm not too worried about that either. I am planning on keeping this car long term, so hopefully the paint and sheet metal hold up.
