This.

Would it not have been better if you want to retain a usable boot, to mount it vertically against the wheel arches at the side?

That purple mosfet amp looks suspiciously like an amp i owned about 2 years ago and have never seen one like it again lol. Just out of interest is where the earth wire connects all black and a bit melted? lol

No, I meant to prevent any overheating issues he could have mounted it on at the side of the boot on the boot 'wall' as it were to retain the boot floor but allow air around the amp, instead of boxing it in under a false floor.

At the very least I would suggest cutting a couple of holes at each end of the 'floor' and stick some 12v computer fans in one end to draw some cool air through.
