Drilled my amp to the chasis on the back of my trunk. No subs yet.

My amps fit perfectly under the front seats. They're out of the way, don't take up any useful space, and extremely difficult to steal.

Thanks. I'd say about 2 1/2 inches. Yes, they are power/heated seats. The only concern I would have is if the amps got too hot. Mine have built-in fans so it's not a problem.

Yeah, I had one of my amps (Kicker) mounted on my sub box until a few months later after mounting it it there, I was wondering why my one of my channels kept fading in and out. I soon found out the vibration from the bass hitting on the box loosen up the part of the circuitry inside the amp. I never encountered anything like this before. I then mounted on the back of the rear seat, and no problems. When the wheather gets warmer, though, I'm going to mount both of my amps underneath the seats.
