Also BTW a sub is not all that you need.

 

get the alpine PDX amp I would not trust to throw a small amp especially sony under the seat.

I could imagine cabin fire. Or at least a lot of melting foam.

 

The sony I have delt with before seem to be a little on the hot side. the new pdx alpine amps have a small foot print and run REALLY cool.

 

I got mine done at circuit city

 

Have you found the Electronics Junkie forums yet??? There are lots of really good pics and some decent advice there, too.

I should also add that I agree with Cow... Under the seat is BAD. Not much room and it will get toasty there... If you are shorter then most, you could try behind the seat. I have seen that work successfully but, ultimately, in the trunk works best. Either where the spare tire is or in the tool well.

Good luck!

 

If you can find a REALLY little amp (like a little MTX two-channel), it could be mounted inside the spare tire. Just put in on a round piece of MDF and bolt it in with the tire. Would be tight, but it might work.

If you don't want to give up trunk, adding a sub is going to be a PITA. There is a way to get it in the pass side foot well but that takes a TON of work and means you can only transport short passengers.

I have seen a couple of shots where owners have put a small sub in the secret compartment. I have never heard the installs, though. Again, I would imagine this to be a TON of fab work and, in my opinion, not worth the results.

I have my amps (one four channel and one two channel) in the spot where the spare should be. It was taken out a LONG time ago... I also have a 12" sub mounted in the tool well. This install works fine for me and my daily-driving needs. I just accept the risk with the lack of spare tire.

 

I usually just carry a can or two of fix a flat along with me on road trips. I know there is risk but I am willing to accept it.

That being said, I am willing to bet that you will be just fine with the aftermarket head unit and a good set of door speakers. I actually get quite a bit of bass out of mine. I just like to feel my music as much as I like to listen to it.

Good luck with it. Be sure to keep us posted.
