Default Removable Amp/Sub Enclosure

S'Up? New here. I found some inspiration after reading some of the threads here - Thanks guys!
I wanted share my idea for a removable Amplifier/Subwoofer Enclosure:
I have a 2005 Accord LX Sedan - Great car, but the sound system SUCKS.
I didn't want to drop $500+ on an in-dash DVD/NAV system so I opted for a simple add-on subwoofer system.
I actually used a clothes dryer plug! (from Home Depot)
I mounter the amp on the back of the subwoofer enclosure and ran the power/ground/remote wires to the male clothes dryer plug.
Ran the speaker level input to a microphone connector (from Radio Shack).
So now when I need to remove the enclosure (and amp) all I do is unplug two connectors.

that can certainly work. just make sure the fuse is sized for the current rating of the plug.
