Amp behind seat

this might be a dumb question. i have a 07 crew cab. i put my amp on the back wall of the cab. how important is the carpet piece that goes behind the back seat? i didn't know if i need to put it back on or if i could just leave it off.

Not important but it helps kill some road noise.

Hey hayden check this link and look what this guy did to solve his problem. He used sound dampening, I cut a hole on mine around the amp but look bad, it is behind the back seat I know but my truck deserve better finish.

this is the link (last 3 pics)

I actually found that it adds noise. Its just another piece of material that can rattle or move around. I took mine out and replaced it with butyl sound deadener.

OP: Check out my gallery for some ideas, and search other threads as many people have done this.

I cut mine to fit the amp board and put it back on. I would've did the whole sound deadening thing, but didn't have the time or the money. I don't notice any added noise and it really don't look half bad. I really should've painted the amp board black though. I'm kickin' myself...
