Are you talking about the storage area underneath the rear panels next to the spare tire?

If so, I mounted my amp in there, along with 4 PC fans to keep it cool. It works well and keeps me from having to mount it under a front seat where it could get kicked. It also allows me to completely hide all the wiring from view (except for the speaker wires going to the subs of course).

The foam is there to keep things from rattling.

I used it as an ice chest (sort of) and it worked pretty good for about 4-5 hours.

Ice goes in ziplock backs so no leaking.

Of course, it's hard to get in there on my box since I have about 75LBS of box, amp and woofers on top of it now.

nothing at all. I store tools and emergency stuff in the locked panel, and wont have any amp or speaker boxes.

I had a car for most of my life and now ive got ROOM! going to enjoy it. I like being able to fold the seats down and cram a lot in there.

Yep that area.

I think I might build anew box for it and put my onw lid on there. the lids and box that are in there now just seem cheap and easily breakable if I try bringing home project wood.

Use it to carry my torque wrench for my wheels and a few other items. I've kinda turned it into a "storage area"...
