[mr sheep]

im just think of making a frame for my amp so it can go in the rear quarter, just a bit worried it may get to hot.

im going to put an amp under a false floor i think it should be ok

is any part of it showing??? if the heatsink is it will be fine

as above, if the heatsink is free to the air, wont be a problem, if its not, youve got to fnid some way of getting a decent level of ventilation in there

Im also wondering where to put my amps....Damn you fabric rear seat backs!

How have other people done it in their Clios? Or where else have you put your amps?

under one of the front seats ? this is where im possibly going to fit mine when i strip the rear seats out and fit my buckets

 

[Bryan]

gecko, flase floor, mdf baffle on boot side wall, under seats, in fact anywhere you can fit it

 

[mr sheep]

the amp is pretty small tbh, might be able to relocate under the passenger seat

it would be toatally covered if in the panel so zero ventilation so could be a problem

I have an amp under the passanger seat, fits in pefectly, (2ch), keeps things neat and tidy. 4ch amp wont go in tho, I would have bought a 4ch if it cuold have fitted, but anyways.

yeah i also have 4 channel amp and only place i could get it was in the back of the car with the sub box. thing is it takes up half the boot but what else can ya do? i had to get the control box from the front to the back and then back from the back to the front, i have never seen so meny wires for something like that in my life. but they all stealthed well so that was good.

yes but the mk2 seats are just like cloth at the back not like the metal ones in the mk1
