What do you guys put in place, when you remove the spare tire and jack.
I love how the cardboard/carpeting does not sit flat once you remove those 2 items.

whats worse is i have an amp screwed into the carboard so it just sinks in the back :/


im thinking about a big peice of foam or something

why exactly are you removing these items? if you are concerned about weight etc, why do you add the amps/subs? if you were concerned about weight, i would say the foam would be the lightest substitute to keep the board rigid. otherwise i would just go and buy something from a lumeryard and lay it across the void, its not as light, but it could be secured to the board as one piece so it didnt move around

I left them. Not like they weight a lot and I kinda need them if i get a flat.

I can change a spare much faster than AAA showing up 3 hours later
