Default Tricked out Audio System in B5 Avant

Who has one and do you have any pics? Now, when I say "tricked out" I'm not really meaning like show-quality craziness, but I am looking for help with a 2-amp system with a sub. I am basically want to make it look as stock as possible and would like to hide the amps and sub. Is there enough room behind the rear trim for a small box for an 8-inch sub? I have speakers for the doors already (Boston Acoustics ProSeries 4.5's front, 5.5's rear all to be run off an ALpine 4-channel amp) but am contemplating the difficulty of adding one more amp and a single 8 or 10. Anyone convert the spare-tire well into a fiberglass sub enclosure? Any advice/instruction or your own experience would be MUCH appreciated. Goin' CRAZY thinking of options. THANKS!!

Default I just installed a system in my avant...

I wouldn't call it tricked out, but so far so good. I initially intended to put a fiberglass sub in the stock sub/cd changer location. I built one, but I had a hard time getting it the way I wanted it. I ended up creating a false floor and flush mounting a sub and two amps.

I've still got some finish up work to do... Here's an overall picture:

Here's the setup:

Clarion 835MP HU
US Acoustics 2100 100w x 2 amp (front speakers)
US Acoustics 2150 150w x 2 amp (sub)
Infinity Perfect 10" sub
DEI Viper 550.2 component speakers

I disconnected the speakers in my rear doors, until I'm ready to spend money on some decent ones. Overall the system sounds pretty good, and it is very loud. I ended up spending about $850 on the whole system, and many hours installing it.
