Help with amp please

What should i look for in an amp for my front speakers.(like the watts and stuff)
I'm gonna be getting Polk Audio db6501 6.5"
http://cgi.ebay.com/Polk-Audio-db650...QQcmdZViewItem

I've been some research but i still dont quite understand ohm's and such

1) I'm only running the amp to the front speakers so would i need a 2 channel amp or 4channel(I think i only need a 2channel)

2) the RMS on those speakers are 10-100watts(peak 300) how many watts would my amp need

3) What would you recommend for an amp or what amps would work well with the speakers(Budget like 150 or so)

4) Where should i mount the amp? Under drivers seat, under passenger seat or where?(It snows pretty good where i live, would that make it a bad idea to mount under a seat)

Thanks in advance and other tips are appearciated

o ya is this amp gonna work or are the watts too high(if that matters)

Yeah, wou will only need a 2 channel. For the wattage try to match the amp to the upper part of the rms rating. I would say that a 300 watt amp would work.
