Mounting Stereo Components

I have searched but did not find any good posts. I am trying to install two amps and a box for a 12inch sub does anyone have a good write up on installing components under the middle row seats?? For the sub I am thinking of making it a quick disco just in case I need the room. Thanks

I have the second row captain's chairs but had no problems mounting my sub amp under the right side. The door sills pop off easily to help route the wires under the carpet and to the amp location. The biggest thing I found was to make sure the amp gets good ventilation - mine has less than an inch from the bottom of the seat but the amp stays relatively cool to the touch. Recommendation would be to run signal/speaker wires down one side of the truck and power down the other to help reduce or eliminate feedback. The sub box is easy enough if you are just going to make it a quick disconnect. I mounted my subs in the rear doors as I didn't want to lose any room or have to move a box around.
