Default Where to put an amp??

Just got some new door speakers and a amp, I want to hook the amp up to them but I dont know where to mount the amp or where to run the wires fpr the amp..under the carpet, kick plates, etc. I also plan on getting a sub in the next couple of weeks. Any help will be appreciated, Thanks.

Run your wires in the kick panels. The back wall is a good place to mount a amp. Fold down your rear bench. This is where I mounted two amps. Best of luck

I just my truck yesterday but was able to save my subs and amp. I have the Arc Audio mini amp and installed in under the passenger side seat in the storage area. All the wiring is ran behind the seat and under the floor plates.

P.S. I don't think I will be putting my system in my new Platinum. We just had a baby and they create to much bass where the car seat goes.
I will be posting the system for sale. PM if you might be interested. I live in OK but get to TX every couple of weeks.

If you want to keep the system, just put a switch on the remote wire to the amp powering the subs. When the baby is there turn the switch off and got the power to the amp, baby not there let the music rumble.

I plan on doing this for when I have passengers and dont want the rumble. You could always turn the bass level down as well, but I would rather have the option to shut it right off.
