Default Help! Need a good place to mount 5 Farad Cap

Hey! We are putting a capacitor in the bug... not sure where to put it. We want it up off the floor so we can actually load the trunk in front of our sub box. Has anyone mounted it up higher so its more visible/out of the way of loading?? Show me a pic if you have one! Thanks!!!

Jason & Jaime

a 5 farad cap? damn, that's a beast, most are the size of amps themselves. unless it's that tiny one from that company that escapes my mind right now.

I'd mount it right next to your amp. If not, as close to your amp as possible.


I had a 0.5 farad cap, and i had it mounted to the back of the backseat, along with everything else.

Hey. Its the Metra/Tsunami cap...about the same size as a 1 Farad but squared off instead of round. I will keep it right next to the amp, but I didn't want to just lay it on the floor. ?? I dunno. Anyone have pictures of theirs?!
