    Default Amp location

    I was just curious if anybody has any ideas about where to mount an amplifier for my stereo. Both front seats are electric so no room under them due to motors. I am thinking about pulling out my back seat and mounting it to the back wall. I'm just not sure if it will have enough room to breath. I am currently building a sub box for under the back seat. Hoping it all works out. Thanks for any ideas.

    If you are building a full length box, thin the area that goes over the tranny hump in the rear and mount it there, just make sure that when the seat is down the amp has some room so that air can flow over it to keep it cool, or build a seperate box within the box and mount one of those little 3" fans to push air on to it, from outside of the box
