Best Amp Location

Hi. I am looking for suggestions on the best place to install an amp in the Matrix so that it is out of the way. Any ideas would be appreciated.

Thanks

You can put it under the seat. It's a good hiding spot, especially if you have an expensive amp so it won't get stolen. However check the dimensions below the seat and the amp if you can fit it under there and at least have a 1" clearance on the top for ventilation.

I've had my amp under the front passenger side seat since installation. Well, okay I had it under the drivers side for like a month before I moved it. It's hidden well enough not to be seen from the outside and easily removable if I ever have to remove it.

under seat is pretty tough depending on size of amp, I couldn't so it's attached to the sub box for now.
