i put mine on my box and i have one under my passenger seat... in my exp if u put it in the seat thing it gets hot in there.... try putting it under a seat... then it can get a little air and its not exactly in the way, if u pull ur seat you can mount the amp down and then put the seat back in, thats how i did my main amp

yeah, i figured i would have to do that... the amp i am looking at is 22.5" long, and just over 10 inches wide. the height will be fine, but im not sure if it will work for me. it may stick out too far. i thought about inside the seat as well, but it would definately get too hot. its a kicker kx700.5 amp by the way. i dont have a sun box, since i have a jl audio stealthbox in the center console.
