Placing Amps

I'm just wondering where the best place to put my amps is. I have an 89 corolla sr5 and right now i have them mounted to the backs of my seats but i need more space cuz i have another amp and a capacitor etc...where are other good places to mount them and how would i go about doing it? Thanks in advance!

I made some panels and mounted them to the sides of the trunk.

mine is under the passenger seat.... the trunk is for the batteries and tanks and by bringing the amp closer to the doors i have shorter leads. (my subs are in the doors)

lol i cant do that...my car would be broken into in like 5 seconds if i kept all my stuff exposed....whenever i leave the car i lock the seats up so the amps and stuff are all hidden in the trunkk and locked either way (gotta love corollas) and i take the deck faceplate with me.
