Thats a really good idea. I was planning on getting rid of the rear speakers anyways.

Also what if you wanted to hide all the wiring under the rear deck (where the third break light is) and just have the amp showing a bit cut a hole in the carpet there?

I mounted my amp under the rear decklid in the trunk, upsidedown.

I'm thinking that I may remove it and cut a piece of wood that I'll carpet and bolt up there, then re-install the amp on top of it.

I'll post some pics of the existing setup sometime this weekend.

Mount it underneath the car, keep the center of gravity low and give it good cooling! lol

/sarcasm.

If no one's going to be sitting in the back, might as well mount the amp under the seat and cut some foam out to accomodate it. Assuming it can stay cool enough. I know for a fact that no one will ever be able to fit behind my driver's seat so long as I'm driving!

Putting in where the rear speakers are would be a pain if you had to make adjustments or if a wire came loose.
