Rear well filled, rear deck filled, where to put T TOPS??!

To fit my system in my car I had to take up the rear well and rear deck... I dont wanna have to leave my T's at home.... Has anyone done a custom t top rack somewhere other than the back seat, rear deck or well? Like whut about on the sides or something? Someone has to be in the same situation as me... Any ideas?

Mine are stored in the stock bag in basically the stock location (actually about 5 inches higher). The bag sits on top of the amp rack and sub box. The rearmost strap hooks are in the stock location and the frontmost strap hooks are relocated to the top of the amp rack. The amp rack has a carpeted cover so that I don't have to worry about scratching the amps and the subs are flush mounted so I don't have to worry about them hitting the bag at full excursion.

Hmm.. may sound crazy, but I wonder if anyone could fab up a way to put them behind the rear seats. It would work I would think. If you just cut out a spot on the side big enough to fit the part with the latch and then make the seat a little less thick. Hard to explain, maybe someone will understand.

sounds like you went overboard with the system.

Okay guys, I made a quick, crappy drawing of my idea in paint. I'm not even sure if the t-top would fit.
